Building a successful community-driven software project: part 4

This is a multipart post. See part 3

Just a brief conclusion to my post sequence; the three principles for succeeding at community-driven projects are:

• Make it easy for the people to give you their feedback - it's highly valuable.
• Listen and reply to people's feedback. Don't do every-possible-requested-thing, but reply on time.
• Don't take any policy as a dogma. Everything can be changed.
