I've been lurking around XOOPS for several years. I only just registered because I'm seeing simple questions go unanswered because of redundant, and IMHO useless threads like this taking up the lion's share of the homepage.
But since we're on the topic of Project Managment, I'll comment based on my observations.
A single Project Manager will not work. We saw this with Herko. He tried, but the model didn't work, nor did the "Core Team/Management Team" model.
It's just my opinion as a lurker, but I would think that a model where a small group 3 or 5 members, each with a specific area of responsibility would work better. For example...
Have a manager of the following 5 areas of XOOPS:
Core
Addons
Community
Publicity
International
Those 5 would form a council or "Board of Directors" that ultimately has the final vote. Under each "Director" would be a team of peers who tasks could be delegated to.
Food for thought. For a project as old as this one, you would think you'd have all these details worked out by now.
The lights are on... nobody's home
