Hey Coding Horror,
I think the community never got a clear explanation of what was going on here to begin with. I think if someone had said, “Hey, this guy who was a founder of StackOverflow and StackExchange wants to transform forum software and he wants our help.” the BB comment community would have taken to it much faster.
I’d like to recommend to Beschizza that he do an interview with you guys and explore what is going on here in a little depth. It is interesting as a story and a story about crowd sourced intelligence. Which is a BoingBoing specialty, no?
Good luck.
