       | Reducing your influence and encouraging self-governance seems
       | necessary and inevitable but also opens the doors to seeing your
       | community and your vision for it devolve into something you don't
       | want or aren't prepared for.
       | 
       | How do you step in and nudge a community that has grown to that
       | point in the "right" direction without scaring off those
       | involved?
       | 
       | Note: maybe you don't. I understand that "be specific" is not
       | only important in bringing in and retaining community members but
       | also ensuring the community stays on the rails.
