Oh, you're funny ADP ;o).
Yes I know.
:)
But - why not? Someone has to coordinate things. At least between the programers and the doc-writers (if someone wants to do this job). And, most important: If you leave programers alone you usually will get a piece of complicated science :)
This is only a small project. But we can test if bigger things are possible without one person has to spend a big part of his life. If things are splitted into small pieces, someone has to hold anything together.
Because, while I've coordinated lots and lots of graphic design projects, I know absolutely zilch about programming and how programs run. I don't have a shred of knowledge about what should be done first, who even would be working on what part of the program, even if I know (for the sake of an example) odf was working on mesh export, bagginsbill on material conversion, etc....I don't have any idea where each piece of coding lies in the whole scheme of things. I think a program manager should at least know a little about what they're managing...lmao. Not that I mind at all, it's just I don't think I'm really the right person to do it ;o).
