@salmonchild I think that the issue is that there isn't enough cash left to do that. We need the round to get enough cash to be able to go out and tell people about Microcosm.
I'm not a salesperson, but I saw an opportunity to pitch Microcosm to a company last week, and took it, they bit my hand off, but I'm holding off passing them details until this is sorted, as what they wanted was the 'tumblr for forums' model that David was proposing, the cost of forum was an issue for them, running their own had previously cost them around £600 per year, so they were willing to put down around £300 per year (which was the point where they felt it was worth it for them). They where only a small company doing user groups for a much larger company, and felt forums would help them with coordinating requests.
An no, this isn't about LFGSS being self sufficient, more about Microcosm being so.
