Frankly speaking, its not entirely true that we lack leaders in Ubuntu. In the past too we have had good projects (SU?) but as we all know a project does not go forward with just chiefs/heads...it needs folks willing to pick up the spade and dig. Maybe that is where things fizzed out. In my experience with the libre software community one leads by example instead of waiting for stuff to get done (read, paid employees in the outside world). I agree with the others, lets not hurry to elect a group of leaders until such time as the relationship, tasks, role, etc... with Canonical marketing team is mutually established. It would be nicer to have a synergy with them, if nothing else. > And for those on this team who are not Christians, every > major religion has similar history. erm... without meaning to digress, mine[1] does not.
