Tomasz-
There is no global "project leadership" here, unless you count Jimbo's control over servers.
Jimbo's control goes beyond server control, it extends to the domain and project name as well. You can't run a "Wikipedia" without following the rules Jimbo lays out. As for me, I will enforce the existing policies, one of which is that no changes are made without going through CVS. Hm, I notice that you have not bothered to commit your change to CVS. Oh well, it wasn't important anyway.
