Appointment has always worked. It is a volunteer organization, so your choices are usually thin. If a project is of interest, them RMS can appoint someone, as he does now. And when he wants to step down he can appoint someone to take over his roles, although I doubt you will ever find someone who is willing to do as much as RMS or could keep the project on course. It is a benevoltent dictatorship, not the French Revolution. -- So many immigrant groups have swept through our town that Brooklyn, like Atlantis, reaches mythological proportions in the mind of the world - RI Safir 1998 http://www.mrbrklyn.com DRM is THEFT - We are the STAKEHOLDERS - RI Safir 2002 http://www.nylxs.com - Leadership Development in Free Software http://www.brooklyn-living.com Being so tracked is for FARM ANIMALS and extermination camps, but incompatible with living as a free human being. -RI Safir 2013 _______________________________________________ gnu-misc-discuss mailing list gnu-misc-discuss@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnu-misc-discuss
