So, does this proposal solve any of the previously-mentioned problems?
1. There is no longer any requirement that the project structure be
-complete. Some devs work on very specific parts of the tree, while
-some work on practically everything; neither should be shoehorned into
-an ad-hoc project structure. Moreover, it should be easy to create new
-projects where needed (and remove them when they are not), which this
-proposal should enable.

2. By having the members choose their project leads periodically, the
-project leads are necessarily at least somewhat responsible (and hopefully
-responsive) to the project members. This proposal has removed the list of
-responsibilities that project leads were supposed to satisfy, since hardly
-anybody has ever looked at the original list since it was written. Instead
-the practical responsibility of a lead is "whatever the members require", and
-if that isn't satisfied, the members can get a new lead (if they can find
-somebody to take the job!).

-6. This proposal doesn't help find inactive devs or projects. It

-time. As for moribund projects, if the project page isn't maintained, it's

7. The metabug project is a great idea. Let's do that! Adding a useful
-project shouldn't require "metastructure reform", although with the
-current system it does. With this proposal it wouldn't.
