Well i recall you used to have to go through beauracracy (sp) to get changes implemented and now you get to set the priorities on what gets fixed/improved, etc.

Yes, and I think I was probably pretty vocal about the way I feel about that approach. It's something big companies have to do. But a message board application is not particularly large or complex. Jon or you could probably write one before bedtime tonight. I definitely prefer a "skunk works" approach to development/maintenance of this kind of application. The kind where a user can make a suggestion, the programmer likes it, and it's a new feature 15 minutes later. Happens on iHub all the time. I remember watching it happen on SI when Brad was at the keyboard, and that got me completely hooked on that approach.
