Yes either a benevolent dictator or a steering committee. Robert makes good
decisions about which features are implemented but he'll need to become more
liberal about user source submissions and be willing to accept great ideas.

A bug tracking system like Bugzilla also needs to be implemented inorder to keep
track of bugs.

Whatever happens, we can't let Euphoria suffer the same fate as Bach and those
other clones.
