I'm proud of the Model-Glue project and its code. Its community support, however, is somewhat of a sore spot with me.
It's hard to know what you're good at until you try something. I've tried being a community leader for an OSS project, and I've found out I'm not very good.
Without any more fluffiness: today at cf.objective, Raymond Camden agreed to work with me on creating and filling a "Community Manager" role. There's no one I'd rather have: Raymond's proven his ability to create and support OSS ColdFusion software, and he's fantastic at talking about Model-Glue with ColdFusion developers. We'll be working out the details (Ray, up for dinner tonight?), but I'm hoping we'll see:
* A move to a better list system, such as Google Groups
* A new Model-Glue web site with proper forums
* (This one's a dream, and we'll need help doing it): Community driven "Actionpacks" that server as starting points for common applications, like calendars, etc.
If there's anything we've missed, or anything you'd like to see the Model-Glue team do, please let us know in comments or e-mail!

Well, I'll volunteer to add supported for named bean factories in CS.And I'd like to help establish some guidelines for 'official' ActionPacks. I've got a lot of ideas as to how these can be done in nice and flexible ways.
