[CoLoCo] suspicions confirmed

[David Overcash]

Actually, Shuttleworth has EVERYTHING to say about every decision in
Canonical and for Ubuntu development.  He can over-rule the community
council on any decision as well as direct development however he sees fit
(mostly because he funds all development and official support).  He does,
however, strongly value the open source community and chooses more often to
yield to that group of programmers rather than simply be dictator.  : )
