Whenever you get x number of volunteers only 0.1% of them will be  
really committed.  With the usual caveat of "Everybody has day jobs"  
out of the way I totally understand where you're coming from.  If you  
have the energy for it then I'd say do what you can.  Big job  
though.  I'd given up the Theme Garden for dead months ago and am  
quite surprised it's still there.

Typosphere is permanently 'coming soon' ... but what should be coming  
soon?  Trac is there and used.  Forums?  Well look at the activity on  
the Typo Forums ... it's not much really.  Wiki?  Well Trac is being  
used for that.

Needs must I guess and there just doesn't seem to be a big 'need'  
right now.
