If we have a group of 10 persons. I bet there will be around 2 to 3  
persons really doing the hard core work. The rest commenting, replying  
a few emails. It's very rare when people, even with very good will,  
find the time.

Ask yourself, are you ready to spend half to a full day a week to work  
on this. That is clear and simple. 5 to 10 hours a week.

Harry is just being realistic. If in the end we have more time in our  
hands. Coool! it means we will be able to do more. But starting being  
too ambitious and we will not achieve anything.

What I really want to [see][3] is how many people are ***already  
working*** on what we are discussing and Collecting examples of things  
happening right now in the business world online.
