14 because we have no manpower to do anything else besides maintaining
15 packages. And even that, sometimes feels it's beyond our limits. See

19 I've been around for a long time and I don't seem to remember getting
20 new developers on board for non-technical stuff (wallpapers, PR,
21 artwork etc). It seems we simply can't attract this kind of interest

23 really can't compete what other distros do in that area.
