I should point out that the Governance document (currently under review on cab-discuss) tries to clear this up a bit. Issues with the web site aside, the term "leader" will likely be superceded by "core contributor". The idea is for each subcommunity to be able to implement their own rules for updates and the like, provided those rules are within the spirit of the Charter and Governance doc. Under thos cirucmstances, there's no reason why a community couldn't open up their wiki pages to people like James Carlson. The Governance doc is still a work in progress, but we (the CAB) think that it is nearing completion. -- Rich Teer, SCNA, SCSA, OpenSolaris CAB member President, Rite Online Inc.
