i tend to disagree to your rather linear concepts of leaders and
subordinates. this strict hierarchy was what essentially broke the owrt
team up. if you need a strong leader to tell you what you can(not) do,
then you are in the wrong place buddy. consider the core team as members
of the community that have just been around for a long time and played a
big role in some part of the project. as can be seen in this
discussions, things worked out well without anyone getting involved.
everyone has a voice that he can use to proclaim ideas. the problem is
that people tend to sit around, not get involved and use the "the leader
gave no orders" excuse to legitimate their silence.
