I am not convinced that *any* investment of time or resources into Google Plus would not be a waste. Do you have figures for the number of people in the community that use Google Plus and are not on any other information channel, including the mailing list? I suspect that the number is extremely low, possibly zero.

Spending time on something solely because it is there makes very little sense. Instead of trying to cover a large number of platforms, we should be covering the ones people actually use and deleting accounts on the ones that aren't in use, so that people migrate to the active forums.

In an effort to be accommodating, we have spread ourselves too thin, and information has fallen through the cracks. When it comes to information channels, we need to shift from quantity to quality.
