Hi Peter,
It seems you're concerned that the decisions made by a PSC vote wouldn't
necessarily be as good scientifically/technologically good as those of a
benevolent dictator (in this case yourself).
I realise this may be an ironic question, but do you have any scientific
basis for that claim - I'm sure social science must have investigated this sort
of thing? I believe the purpose of the OSGeo incubator is to get the best
outcome for a project, so if there's evidence that that's done via the
benevolent dictator model it would make sense that OSGeo accept such a model
where it's desired.
Cheers,
Jonathan

Hi Marc,
I understand your position, and I appreciate your thoughtful deliberations.
Still, these are all on meta level, not fact level. This is where voting-based
decisions, rather than scientific/technologically sound decision can lead to a
failure indeed.
