Ok, I agree that we need to allocate more human resources to some of these systems. Let's start looking around for more people who can help out.
I'm learning my way around Linux fairly well, will soon be learning some PHP and how to configure Apache web server, etc. As soon as I think I can lend a hand I'll jump in.
I'd like to make one important point, perhaps we are creating more work for ourselves than is neccessary. If we have too many open projects going on at the same time, then we get fragmented and nothing tends to get completed. Perhaps we should focus on only one or two things at a time until completion - by completion I mean "working well enough" because nothing is ever fully complete.
It may also be worthwhile to set up the ability for people to make contributions to the coding of some of the projects. For example, if the filebase code was publicly available, anyone could fix the bugs without having server access, so long as there's someone made responsible for coordinating the updates, etc.
