Open source is now way too big to be a single community. Has been for years. We don't have a community, we have a *society*, with dozens to hundreds of little sub-communities, political factions, hereditary nobility, an economy, turf battles, crime, and social unrest.
Hmmm. I might have a keynote for myself, now ...

I'm not sure the society has been around long enough to see any "hereditary nobility" show up. hand picked successors yes, (i.e. adopted nobility), but even there the society requires competence from the leaders or it will start ignoring them pretty quickly.
