I find myself harumphing at much of the proposal. It's not the topic itself; democracy can work in open source, and I think Debian is well served by that model. There are interesting things to be researched about open source project management, but the approach doesn't seem to face them head on, and is full of assumptions that could be detrimental to the usefulness or quality of findings. I'd have to really dig into the proposal but I don't even have time to fully absorb that blog post. I'll try to expand on this after work if I still give half a damn.
