There is much more to open sourcing a project then just getting more help. 1) It is the ultimate in transparency. People have no reason to fear using fftogo because the source is right there for everyone to see. 2) It is great for communication. When I make a change to fftogo everyone will see it (a RSS feed of my changes gets pulled into http://friendfeed.com/rooms...). 3) It is a learning opportunity. Anyone interested in Python, Google App Engine, Django, or FriendFeed could benefit from just looking at the code. I don't mind if nobody else ever helps out; honestly I care about the points above more than getting help. - Benjamin Golub

Those are good points, Benjamin, and I know the community is glad that those are your reasons for doing so! :) - Sarah Perez
