If you don't agree, go ask Solderpunk yourself. He doesn't seem to
enjoy talking to this community anymore, though, for reasons quite
apparent to me.
I will not comment on personal issues (like most of us, I don't knowwhy he is now silent) but this is a problem for Gemini. The BenevolentDictator model has a lot of strengths (fast decision, consistency, nobureaucracy and processes, ability to keep focused on a tough goal,etc) but it requires the BD to act. If the BD is absent or silent,this model turns into the Nobody In Charge, which is really bad,because it does not allow to decide on touchy issues.
