Yeah, I think that's the best way to do it. It's a community project, so obviously we have to listen to the input of the community when it comes to the general direction of the thing... but it does need someone to take charge once that's sorted out and to bring it to completion. I don't think any major decisions should be made without at least some input from the community though.

As for it coming down to deciding between two people -- as long as they were happy to work at it together then I can't see it being a problem really. Even if it was a small group in charge of sorting out the details, it's still going to work better than the community at large. I do like the idea of having an individual "host" for the competition each year, so if we can stick to that it'd be good.
