All our projects need champions. I don't believe those could be
people who don't work on the code or on the documentation/ideas some
way. I could name those people driving us forward for some of our
projects: I see the man who continues to pull all gEDA with all
its contradictions is DJ, the man who continues to work fine on PCB is
Bert. Unfortunately, geda-gaf has lost such a leader (I mean Peter
B.) due to unfriendly acts of some our collaborators. I very
appreciate Edward's work though I feel we see geda-gaf future
differently. I, for one, wish to unify geda core functions and
rewrite them in Scheme in order to get rid of our C-Scheme-C
structure, throw out duplicated functionality, simplify internal
structure, and make functions less opaque for both C and Scheme
levels. (BTW, gschem has REPL now, are you aware of it? ;))

As DJ has said (related to another issue), we cannot win in the
state we have now. We need leaders for every our projects. And if
he/she decides we must go the way I don't want to, I'll better
leave rather than annoy people and stay on our user's way (am I
wrong here?).

Cheers,
