It is a well-established term, alright. Does it have an inherently good connotation? No, absolutely not. Every time anybody calls me the BDFL of Git for Windows, it annoys me, to say the least. And yes, when I pull out my generous self, I can give you that the *intention* was funny. But to some, it is not funny at all. Besides, in our field we had pretty established terminology for a long time. It was the *architect* who had the final say over what goes in and what stays out. And the respective team leaders were responsible for respective areas of the code, trusted by the architect. > > Further, "googling" dictator does not give Linus as a result in (at > > least my) search (bubble). > > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benevolent_dictator_for_life > > > Suggestion for substitution: Principal or principal integrator. > > These are poor substitutions. I agree that those are poor substitutions, but shooting down without giving better alternatives is a poor way to reply ;-) Ciao, Dscho --8323328-708649904-1550588297=:41--
