John, I think you and Mike are both right. On one side I don't aim to such a big (very unlikely) corporate change; on the other we all know that developers don't make other developers' life hard on purpose: pencil pushers play a role here.
The fact some people from Adobe (not management of course, but those who know how to code - the ones I'd like to talk with about "real" issues) have been showing attention to my blogpost is... an interesting and somehow surprising fact, given that I'm basically Mr. Nobody from Nowhere.
It's clear that my main intent wasn't to start an "Occupy Photoshop" movement (nice name, though). It looked bizarre to my eyes that the PS scripting community could count on many talented contributors yet newcomers keep having troubles orienting themselves (where to find official docs, where to find resources, where to find examples, how to put things together). Just while I was writing the draft I got a message from a friend of mine, a UI designer, asking me for help about scripting gradient fills for paths - I pointed him to various links and resources, he then naively asked me: "but how am I supposed to know this stuff?!" Eh... you know it if you know it...
We see with our very eyes that Adobe is not providing an efficient system to leverage its own development platform; crazy? Crazy. I've thought that we - while having created some excellent resources (that I've mentioned in the blogpost) - can do better. Being somehow more "linked". And I've suggested a way to do it (collaboratively maintained repositories on GitHub) - which isn't the only one, nor the better, I've my own doubt too - but will help.
I've been surprised that many of the ones supporting - if not my suggestions, my diagnosis - are people from other communities (ID, AE mainly, but not only). Which means that there's a level at which we can start confronting and sharing our points of view inter- and intra-communities.
Whether this gathering, besides strengthening our identity as a "group of developers" (who are surprisingly collaborative), will make an impact on "the system" or not I can't say - Romans used to say divide et impera (divide and rule).
