Heh.

But an actor or prom queen, is *just* who we need as a Great Leader (I
prefer the prom queen, I feel sure if we had a prom queen as Great
Leader, we would turn heads). If they can sell themselves to
developers, they should be able to sell NetBSD to to masses standing
on their head. And who says prom queens don't have vision? The last
person we want occupying this position is a detail oriented coder,
who's skills would be far better used elsewhere.

Julian.
