However, I'm not quite sure this Community CEO thing can fly (Loic leMeur's blessing not withstanding), design by committee is always sure to fail. But it's going to be a nice experiment anyway. Best of luck anyway, looking forward to seeing where this goes.
About being a community CEO (and coder ;-)): I believe you're building for your users - they are your community, who knows better what they want and where they want the product to go.
oh absolutely, I wasn't talking about ignoring the feedback loop or not doing constant iteration. I was saying that you need to have someone that takes decisions and the accountability rather than trying to please everybody. :)
