I guess I just don't buy (anymore) the idea that people don't contribute
or assist more due to a flaw in the system; this notion may well have
been valid in the pre-Drupal days when the website was very closed.
Right now, if people don't do more in adding or maintaining website
content, for the most part it is because they don't have the time or
motivation (or both). I would love to be proven wrong, though. :)
