> the last new topic is 3 months old
> last month there is one edit of a topic
> After July 2008 there was not a one month with more than 5 edits.

> Any thoughts? Have I missed some switch to other communication channels? Or
> maybe grok really took away all hearts and souls?
> What are the causes of the slowdown? Or maybe I just misinterpret the
