I have listed myself as a potential project manager. Now, how would this system work? Would I just add my name to any projects I wish to manage? Or would it be voted on at a meeting? Or would it be discussed among those interested in the project?

Hello,
When a new project gets announced to the mailing list, you can take it on. Leave old projects for now please until we have fully migrated.
Thanks,
Sean

I'm not sure if you were there for the meeting where we discussed this, but "manager" is basically just an "organizing pusher" for the project, you just make deadlines and get people to work (but not push too hard ;-).

I think there was a misunderstanding... At least from me.
In my idea there was 1 or 2 ProjectS Manager and a leader per project. The project manager is only taking care everything is going ok, putting deadlines and so-on. Project leader is leading the project on a day to day basis. Coordinators are coordinating the projects... 3 level of actions, but this is how it generaly works in company.And this way of working is pretty efficient (as you give responsabilities to some people)

Is that not along the lines of what I said? The only difference is that we didn't mention a "leader".

Hello,
I havne't been building the system around your suggestions and instead the interpretation I made of it. We can discuss it further at the meeting, but personally I think you are adding too many levels. Right now we have co-ordinators organising meetings and assigning project managers and one project manager per project running it.
I don't think our projects are generally large enough to need more than that.
Thanks,
Sean
