furball's points regarding the lack of recruitment outside of the support/MH teams is probably one of the main problems. There are quite a few people who might be able to contribute something to improve Planetarion but don't want to join a support team before doing what they're best at.

Just give some new fresh people the chance to improve a part of Planetarion which needs help, but doesn't require access to anything. A few examples could be that the user interface for the game needs updating, the manual needs reworking to be more friendly, the game needs a tutorial, etc. I'm sure there are other areas which badly need improving but nobody is going to update them because theres not enough people willing to do it.

It seems that Planetarion needs a manager who can run the overall thing, deals with recruitment, the sub-projects and has an overall vision. At the moment Planetarion is wandering along with minor patches and nothing new appearing.
