How hard is it to understand that the PMC Chair has no role (slight

discussing the wrong thing to do.
I don't know that I agree completely with you about the role of PMC
Chairs - sometimes a good PMC chair helps a project quite a bit....
Projects should not be trained to rely upon an individual; they
should be trained to act collaboratively.
This is a very convincing argument to me, especially since people
without open source experience are already trained to look for who's
in charge.
Count me as mulling it over some more....
