Alcoholics Anonymous has, in its principles, the idea of "responsibility with 
equivalent authority."  That is, those who are responsible for something have 
the necessary authority to make things happen within their sphere, although of 
course they are subject to oversight by their groups.  It's an interesting 
idea that many companies would be wise to follow.

Also, if the organization we create gets to the point of actually employing 
people, it would be unwise in the extreme to carry out personnel discussions 
in public.
