We've spent a lot of time planning to have a lot more events this year. When we sat together as a group, we thought that having as many events as possible would be great. Even though our team had spent tremendous time planning to make a lot of great events, it seems like we're planning for more events than we can handle. It's time to throttle back and focus on giving everyone even more time to plan and create our next Gaia event.
It's been a while since the Mimzy sponsorship. We're really happy to see the amount of users invovled with the sponsorship event, and now we have more sponsors who wish to work with us. It's very exciting to be able to think through fun events, though at the same time we're very careful not to put in too much sponsorships, and to make sure that most of us continue to work on Gaia features.
Even though we want to make a lot more Gaia features, half of our team is still working to make sure that our systems are scalable. Meaning that if 100,000 users are online at the same time, Gaia will still be fast and responsive.
I feel sorry to disallow blank spaces and other symbols in usernames upon registration. We really want to make everyone's usernames safe to be used as a part of URL or email address. We hope to have at least a nice and short URL to point to each user's journal or to have email like services in the near future. Without the changes that's going on, features like thoses would not be possible.
