The person in charge
"Well who gets to decide who's in charge"
Whoever takes charge.
It's like they're missing the point of OSS. If you don't like who's in charge, remix and make your own. Whoever is the more capable leader will have a successful project. "Beliefs" and all that other crap get left at the door, the race is for the medal - in this case whoever has the best project wins.
Though I suppose trying to achieve that with ideological witchhunts (and what, forming a 'cult of coding'? haha) is a viable strat too. LG was dominated by Kimura Kei for a while

- pryelluw 10y agoThat's a good point but it also shows how easy it would be to discredit a whole project or maintainer.
