I have to agree that management is difficult. It&#x27;s a challenging task to coordinate the work of individual contributors who aren&#x27;t paid or committed to schedules, etc.<p>But all this is saying is that there are very few individuals who are willing to work on managing open source projects. Or at least they don&#x27;t get in contact with the projects they could help with.<p>Open source projects need more contributors than just programmers, but how to achieve that is a hard question. Programmers don&#x27;t make good artists, UI designers or managers, but finding individuals who would like to contribute is an issue.
