Hi James, I believe most of your questions have been (at least attempted) answered on the contributions link of the webpage, and the front page of the wiki. http://opm-project.org/contrib.php http://www.opm-project.org/wiki/index.php/Main_Page
Like most open projects opm is best described as a meritocracy. You will find a strong correlation between dominant developers and maintainers on each repository. I do believe all issues of importance to the project are brought into open discussion. We do have a "patches are welcome" policy. However, our community today is developer heavy, so we do miss a larger user community. I hope that will change as the code base becomes more relevant for users. In any case, opm is an open project, and I do not believe decision processes are more closed here than in other open projects. Typically key developers will make design decisions simply by contributing code (like the current situation with multiple grid interfaces). We are still a young project though, so we will hopefully get more of the expected infrastructure of an open project in place over time. Make no mistake though, we aim to run opm as an open project.
