People do things that are simple, that look simple, and that show promise of immediate result. A survival skill in the rest of the work world is to learn how to avoid things that waste time, or blur the focus of one's objectives. I doubt it's any different with teachers.
AWAD might be a good resource for a certain kind of teacher - or it might be a good resource for all teachers. But unless they percieve immediate, simple, focused utility, I don't see many of them using it as a regular resource.
If the goal is to attract teachers, then Anu should ask "what is attractive to teachers?" Maybe a quickhelp giving them immediate suggestions on how to use AWAD for answers to common questions. For example, maybe teachers wouldn't be interested (immediately) in all the groups. Maybe they're only interested in one group - questions about words. Maybe they want quick access to the AWADmail and AWAD list, maybe pointers to useful word references (searchable awadmail archives?) I dunno.
