Org right now is making quick progress, important improvements, and has a lot of enthusiastic and useful contributors. When a maintainer decision needs to be made, there is usually a satisfactory result. (Not to say there are no arguments - but every software project has arguments.) Questions get answered properly, people are able and willing to help each other, number of users seems to be large. It is hard to imagine that a campaign to change the leadership style would do anything good, and easy to imagine that it could be destructive. -1 -- David
