If the problem is that there are not enough core developers in Mythtv,
then what is being done to recruit and train new ones?
I browsed the website, SVN, and wiki, and I see no documentation about
"How to become a core dev". Not even a list of who the core devs are
nor tales of their heroic hacks. Is everyone listed in the AUTHORS file
still active? I would have assumed Mr. Dean was a core developer had it
not been mentioned above.
