Sometimes, you need something, write some code that satisfies yourself, publish it, and then mostly forget about it. Or you do some scientific research which results in a program, you write your report, get a grade and move on with your life. In a slightly less extreme way this is what happened with Hugin. It got written, and then nobody was interested is pushing (or pulling) things along. If you have someone working on the project like "Linus Torvalds", he's both a good leader and he's a good technical person. That's ideal. But in the absence of such a person, a person like Yuv is almost as good. And Yuv is doing a good job. He's motivated everybody involved to do a few releases. He's made sure that additional features written by other people haven't been lost but incorporated into the mainline. All good stuff. It's like a big chemical company. Does the CEO of a big chemical company need to know chemistry? It might help a bit, but no he or she does not NEED to be a chemist by trade. Being a CEO is mostly being a manager. So Yuv is doing good things for the Hugin project. I've seen tangible results. I'm happy with his involvement.
