We have a panel with various experiences available to answer your questions. If there is a lack-of or lull-in audience questions, then I (David) will play moderator and try to start the discussion with one or more of the following questions. 1. When did you first realize you were managing a (free software) project, and how did it dawn on you? 2. Do you ever resent management tasks taking you away from hacking? Do you have any constructive responses for dealing with this resentment? 3. Do you have ideas and techniques for attracting and retaining developers on a free software project? https://jonathancarter.org/files/images/debian-fun-statement-0.0.png Read The essential Drucker 4. Can you tell us about a technical conflict your project dealt with? Are there any interesting lessons to be learned from how you or your project dealt with it? 5. How much of your project manager time and energy is used mediating interpersonal conflict? Are there structural changes that might reduce that fraction? The essential Drucker.
