businesses needs, or that if they do conform for a period, that they
will stay that way.

True. True. ; That's why I orignally said:


"After spending the week in Vancouver, I made the following report to
our management team. ; If we are to go forward using Drupal, we need a
dedicated support-and-development team of 3 people. (And my eyeball
prediictions of such things are ususally pretty accurate.)  The team
lead will have, as one of his/her main responsibilities, the  task of
being  our public face  within the Drupal community.  

"This includes
going to events, encouraging contributions of code, and helping with
documentation.  This is crucial, because without being a valued member
of the community, all you'll ever really have is your own Drupal fork
to support.  

"If your organization goes forward with the idea of
contributing patches to core, helping document Drupal, and so forth,
then you will have a voice in future Drupal development."

But then the thread got hijacked by my "scalability" issues... 

And thanks to everyone for some great material which I have diligently copied and forwarded to out sysadmins and dba.
