There’s a book I recently read that you might like, being an open source guy.

http://www.amazon.com/Starfish-Spider-Unstoppable-Leaderless-Organizations/dp/1591841437/ref=pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1196941794&sr=8-2

I’ve been applying it to church organization, even though that’s never mentioned as an application. A real brain twister for the traditionally-minded. I got off on it!

Sounds interesting.

Though technically, from a group process perspective, I don’t think it qualifies as leaderless. Torvald et al provide some sense of leadership as do others. imho.

But then, I come from a training that decrees that there is

NO SUCH THING

as a leaderless group. And all my experience has demonstrated that’s abundantly true.

One will surface sooner or later and usually sooner.
