Yes, this is the case. (As far as I can tell.)
- steveklabnik 8y agoYou're downvoted, but I think that's a bit unfair. Graydon did leave pretty early, so there wasn't this kind of pressure yet, really. However, after he left, we moved to a "core team" model, which meant that a few people (I among them) were the decision makers for everything. This eventually lead to complaints and pressure, and we opened it up further from there, adding all the other teams.
