My observation, as a relative outsider to Guile, is that not
all the people who are doing the bulk of the work on Guile
are having a proportionate say in Guile's direction.
this is difficult to measure in any case.
Lack of say is a disempowerment of programmers, and, once
there is the inevitable disagreement on points that the
disempowered programmers care about, this creates morale
problems. All of which seems antithetical to the spirit of
free software.
well, you're sliding from disproportionate to lack but i follow
you. what is the ideal proportion? how do you determine this?
