I'll grant that. But it looks to me like the wrong reaction to that has taken place. Rather than analyze that and get down to root cause, we throw up our hands and say, "okay, the community is disorganized, so we need a disorganized solution to project management!"

I'm sorry, but I still take the other tack-- I see this as an educational challenge more than anything. I was half-joking with the suggestion of a developer school, but in all seriousness that's close to the solution zone I think we *should* be going toward.

The community is transient? Fine-- but instead of working around that, why not drill down a bit deeper and explore why that is-- and effect a REAL solution?

And, dammit-- why am I still arguing this?
