I think the power of the GDT is in dedicating small groups (2-3 people) to small development projects. Or, for them to all work on stuff like common resources like the server pack, or things such as GS2 documentation, and development tutorials.

The problem is that everyone is talking about the "concept" of a Global Development Team. The reality isn't anything like the name implies. That's why I call this a "feel good" thread.

That's a good suggestion. I tried the GS2 documentation 5 months ago and I found it lacking, although certainly useful. I know Skyld has put a lot of effort into documentation and support... he had the right idea.
