Indeed that's probably one of the few problems I could possibly have -
seeing this stuff through some demonstration videos of NLD [1]. We
probably just need some common sense involved in making sure the
appropriate people in the community get a heads up so they don't have to
see it 2nd or 3rd hand. Innovation happens elsewhere, and that's really,
really great to see. We can just be a lot more mature about it and the
community that we're building.
