Not exactly. It's assuming that some people have more manager talents than others - which is true. Some people are better idea generators, some people are better critics, some people are better coders, some people are better managers.

That can happen to commercial projects too, just on Open Source projects the lack of good management is sometimes more clear (since it is not hidden behind corporate walls).

Do you not ENJOY That's true. But if some Chef would be making his soup for a week, most people would find no use of it, except couple of dedicated gourmet freaks (who would eat in other places anyway, but would come by when The Soup is ready). -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] \/ There shall be counsels taken Stanislav Malyshev /\ Stronger than Morgul-spells phone +972-50-624945 /\ JRRT LotR. whois:!SM8333 ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
