I dislike such projects. It's kind of like having a showcase for the "special kids" where everyone can come and look at how "great" they are because they made some useless trinket.

Build by looking people in the eye, talking and trading with them, not by praising some impressive but ultimately useless thing some random people people from some village did.

That's why China is winning in Africa. The chinese do not build websites showcasing how great some african villagers are. They come and say: you have that, we have this, let's make a deal. You win, I win.
