What, that I oppose any narrow list of what's important? That I oppose taking people and telling them you must work on the stuff I consider important, instead of the stuff you want to?
I find that I can only muster the courage to tackle a book that 1) *I* consider important *and* 2) is a book I really want to do. I find it too hard to keep proof-re-reading a book that I am really not that interested in. This is what DP is good at: getting people to casually attack in little bits books that no one is really very interested in anyway. The problem is, is that eventually *someone* needs to take "ownership" of the book to push it out the door. Often that doesn't happen, and 100+ hours of volunteer work get flushed -- or at least stuck indefinitely on the throne for several years.
