I understand that is one possible interpretation of my words. As I said on IRC, we should define some roles to define a bit of structure. But explicitly leave the rest to be filled in as time roles by. My idea is to create some clarity by defining a bit of structure and keep being flexible by not defining the rest. > What I think, is that we need someone who is doing the task described as > "main organisor" above.

I can also see how model that would work out, if these people are able to work together and keep eachother up to date constantly. > The important point is, that > their job is *not* to make decissions, but to coordinate, keep track of > timeline and deadlines.
