What I think might translate for GNU Radio is to find ways to support
more types of platforms. What about a small
USRP for smart phones and tablets? Would that draw in more developers? A
"platform broadening" might also make sense
from a revenue standpoint: small open source initiatives need revenue
streams to grow and be able to afford things
such as extensive documentation. For GNU Radio, this means hardware.
I agree with that. I had an idea that a miniPCI SDR would be very
interesting solution, I discussed this with few people and they were
very interested indeed, but as a software guy I can't develop it by
myself and I had not enough resources to make someone to build it. So,
if there are any cool hardware engineers out there, looking for a way
to contribute - lets design a small SDR board.

One of big reasons I think that people struggle with GNURadio is that
is jams so many different fields of expertise into one package.
1. Digital Comms people (aka the Maths people) cannot program
themselves out of a wet paper bag, for the most part. This is what I
have seen in industry and academia.
2. Software people get lost in all the digital comm and signal
processing lingo. While they can program, they really don't understand
what each block actually does.
3. Hardware people also get lost in the digital comm stuff, and also
some of the software. However, they tend to be less confused than the
'maths' people on the programming aspect
