There are established ways to develop a (CAD) program development plan outline.

Generally they don't include Linux User Groups, personal assaults, or all this public posturing?

OK,
it was not my intention to "insist" on a certain idea.  Just to "offer" an idea. 
If you are willing and able, to do certain things, then -- great! 
...and as far as, who "should" make the decisions... I might not know the answer to that one, but apparently (in this case at least), it is someone "other than me".

Hi,

    I appreciate the brainstorming, and at one point I considered something along these lines.  However, having an electrical background, computer science comes naturally to me.  I built a raid 5 data server, a raid 1 web server, a router, and 4 workstations.  With the web server running raid 1 and occasionally backed up to the raid 5 data server, I believe the data should be adequately backed up.  I am having a few problems with implementing the software which I was hoping someone would help me with, but, no worries either way.  I will eventually learn how to over come any obstacle that is in front of me.
    I do not mean to be insensitive, I know that if I work alone on this project it might very well take me the rest of my life, and that would not be in the spirit of linux.  To me the spirit of linux is us working together to over come obstacles that we would not be able to over come by ourselves.  I also know that when people volunteer on a project they like to feel that their opinion counts, (and it should count).  However, the project manager (the person dedicated to seeing the project all the way from beginning to end) must be the guiding hand, in order to give the project stability and direction.  To me, this is especially true with linux, where there are some ways of doing the same thing.

I also have an idea -- a suggestion to check out the free wiki [hosting]
service available at
   http://www.wikispaces.com/site/pricing
but since it is also outside the scope of the "day and time" thread, I
decided to create this sub-thread or "branch".
    If the BlenderCAD initiative does need (well, if it could use) a wiki,
then I think this might save some hassle, -- of running / managing a server.
   Of course, if the BlenderCAD initiative were some kind of proprietary
company project, then maybe some of the ideas on the wiki might be trade
secrets or not-yet-patented inventions, or something -- so then, it
might not be appropriate to keep the [wiki] info on someone else's server;
 but since this is more like a non-profit cooperative joint venture to
create / improve some FLOSS (isn't it?) therefore, this ["free" wiki] idea
should be OK.  (right?)
