Hi Jake,

Great article. I entirely agree on the transition from community to formalised leadership roles: this is often a problem when hiring directly from the community.

I am the community manager for Ubuntu; the fastest growing Linux Operating System. I work to enthuse and inspire our global community of contributors.

I am currently writing a book called the Art Of Community, to be published by O'Reilly and also available under a free Creative Commons license. You can see more information on the book over at http://www.artofcommunityonline.org/
