That's nice. Do you want me to explicitly say
"Volunteers are more
important than readers"? Alright. Volunteers (community members, or
dismissively, "power users") are way more important than readers. We're
the
reason there are readers at all.

Well, to be fair, the Foundation seems to have done its homework on these
issues with last month's survey.[1]
When it comes to matters like banner intrusiveness, what matters most is
what the average reader thinks. Volunteers are not necessarily a
representative sample.
