I think you raise an excellent question for open-source and one that should be pursued. It's a challenge because projects start with code and build up a programmer-friendly structure of management (IRC for example). It could definitely be improved. But I also don't think that it's an either / or proposition. Right now, there are hundreds, if not thousands of coders that get paid to work on open-source. Probably many many fewer designers. Why not add more to the mix? John– thanks for your thoughts on this. I think you raise an excellent question for open-source and one that should be pursued.
