Hello everyone,

i would like to make a request in light of the huge success of the "little things" crowd sourcing event.

Dear CCP,

i know you guys have lots of great developers and engineers but you have also been blessed with one of (if not the most) intelligent and skilled community in the IT department. Thousands of developers, system administrators, security specialists, IT architects and infrastructure designers.

I personally am an IT Infrastructure and Service Design Architect.

We would really love if you would use us to crowd source new ideas of engine design to combat the one and true enemy "Soul Crushing-Lag"

Publish anonymized schematics and information about your clustering/infrastructure (hardware), database backbone (and internal design), Game engine (query processing/information flow), Session Handling (Client-Server ).

Do a dev blog set up some quality metrics and lets us give you our ideas and designs, and you get to review them and who knows maybe prototype some of them.

Use us, it doesn't cost you anything and we can feel that we contributed something even if we don't manage to help you, but at least we tried.

So why not tap into this huge free work force? It free!!
