I agree Bulia. I'm think 200-300 is the max. dev. community size. But that is all theoretical.
Userbase is totally different. There is a nice interface between users and developers called our website, mailing lists, chat, etc.
No limits. Limits crush evolution and revolution.
Let the userbase grow...encourage it to grow...provide a service and it will grow.

The metric I'm watching for this is the size of the inkscape-devel mailing list; when it hits 200-300 I will assume we're at the sweet spot. Based on the volume of list traffic I think we're already pretty close. :-)
I can understand the 200-300 as the ideal size of the developer community, but users? They don't have to be a community at all, and any attempts to limit their number seem utterly weird to me. I am not very excited to think that my work will be used by no more than 300 people in the whole world.
