For the past few months Mr. Hammano has not been adding much useful code himself, did not join interesting discussions such as Unicode normalization issues, nor gave much useful comments on patches. He has mostly been busy rejecting useful patches and sending not so useful comments. > > Can we vote Mr. Hammano out and ask Mr. Torvalds to come back as the project leader? I do not mean any disrespect to Mr. Hammano, but don't people think he outlived his usefulness as the project leader? I'm strongly against your proposal, I think Junio is doing a _great_ work.
