Look at what Debian has achieved:
1) stability & security on par with BSD 2) 11 architectures 3) 15000+ packages perfectly integrated 4) 1000 developers 5) many offsprings (Knoppix, Ubuntu, etc.) 6) fastest growing distro for years 7) completely community oriented and community controlled 8) Social Contract & Guidelines
No other distribution comes even close to such achievement!
Could that have been achieved with "faulty leadership"? Hardly. (in particular when you keep in mind that the Project Leader has some real power and influence).
I think Debian is one of the biggest and most amazing sucesses of the free software movement and the Debian leadership has my utmost success and admiration.
If you judge leaders by their results rather than their promises Debian leaders are just about the best leaders one could dream of!
