[Python-Dev] Benevolent dictator versus the bureaucratic committee?

I think I agree with Mark's post, although I do see a little more light (the 
relative imports dicussion resulted in working code, for instance).

The benevolent lieutenant idea may work, _if_ the lieutenants can be found. I 
myself will quickly join Mark in wishing the new python-dev well and 
abandoning ship (half a :-).

If that doesn't work maybe we should try at the very least to create a 
"memory". If you bring up a subject for discussion and you don't have working 
code that's fine the first time. But if anyone brings it up a second time 
they're supposed to have code. That way at least we won't be rehashing old 
discussions (as happend on the python-list every time, with subjects like GC 
or optimizations).

And maybe we should limit ourselves in our replies: don't speak up too much in 
discussions if you're not going to write code. I know that I'm pretty good at 
answering with my brilliant insights to everything myself:-). It could well be 
that refining and refining the design (as in the getopt discussion) results in 
such a mess of opinions that no-one has the guts to write the code anymore.
