Seems to me they need someone whose OSS background is LAMP, not Java and OO.o...? (IMG:

Sorry, I just thought it would be fun to use a few buzzword acronyms.
The main thing to be concerned about now is who drives feature prioritization. If it's still going to be Jimbo and Erik Moeller, then we can probably expect more of the same, i.e., vaporware, or nothing of any value whatsoever. If it's Cooper, then it remains to be seen, but the mere fact that Cooper is female is probably a good sign. Females tend to be more compassionate and less narcissistic, though of course we've seen plenty of exceptions to that in Wikiland. Still, almost anybody is likely to be more compassionate and less narcissistic than Erik Moeller and Jimbo.
Anyway, it's always best to give people a chance to show what they're about before assuming the worst. I say we give her
at least a couple of weeks before concluding that her tenure as CTO is a complete failure.
