Even if that's what Ian thinks it's too late to change Debian's system of management now. I mean, just because Ian thinks something that doesn't automatically make it fact. Debian's democratic structure may be slowing it down against distros like Ubuntu, which appeals to a largely mainstream audience, but it creates the greatest community effort out of any distribution. And like I said, whether or not Ian says it has no bearing on Debian; He is going to Sun[0], so he won't be changing Debian's management structure anytime soon.
