I think the same is true of Wikimedia, where they already have some place to go and without any directed recruitment effort they wouldn't bother to come here as a group.

Sue Gardner (exec director of WMF) plugged LW on her blog: Four essays every Wikimedian should read! (exclamation mark in original.)

Oops, my bad.

Do you know how long any of them stayed?

The selection is pretty interesting (namely, How to Save the World, Defecting by Accident, Why Our Kind can't Cooperate, and Your Price for Joining) in how focused it is on practical issues, particularly how groups work.
