I think they should continue burying seeds. Why have an need date? New seeds can selected base upon knowledge gained from previous parts of the experiment.
Additionally seeds that have genetically modified or any other modifications not available at the start of the experiment could be tested.
Apart from running it well and keeping up to date (recent update seems to have gone well, with a nice example of instances and admins helping each other!?), some redditers seek the big instances?? Curious how communities will adapt.

I wish they would make signups a little more complicated so people go to other instances. There shouldn't be two big instances and a bunch of smaller ones.
