I was actually very heavily involved in the Jedi Academy community for several years, though I'm not an OpenJK dev. I created what's currently by far the largest modding/community website for the game.
OpenJK is really, really neat. In between performance enhancements, security fixes, and all the other shininess, I think the devs are doing a great job at it. The community these days is small, but definitely still active, especially when you consider Jedi Academy was released in 2003. At the time of writing this comment, there are several hundred players ingame.

This is what one of my Skype contacts suggested too. To back it up further: the link works fine in group conversations.
Re:Smart people will think your idea is stupid

While it's certainly possible for smart people to be wrong and for a "stupid" idea to work out great, this seems more faux-inspirational to me than anything else. Genuinely smart people tend to have very good reasons for believing your idea might not work, and to just entirely disregard the thoughts of all people who think your idea won't work seems counter-productive. That's not to say they can't be completely wrong though, but so can you.
