3 is a huge step, that nobody is reading this list or my blog/twitter does not 
mean that are people using it, those people for sure "care" about it.

Hence the suggestion in the other thread to show a warning telling people the 
language does not meet the "optimal" percentage, they can still carry on using 
the language and that if they want to help, they can come to this list to do 
so.
