Tough question.  It's all a matter of layers.  Linuxchix is a cooperative
organism (I was going to say "organisation" but _I_ think "organism" fits
better!).  At the top level is Jenn who is the Linuxchix coordinator and 
who owns the server and domain name and who pays for the bandwidth.  Next 
is the network of volunteers who administer the various sections of
Linuxchix.  

The mailing lists are overseen by Mary Gardiner and Eli Therese.  The
courses mailing list is managed by Michelle Murrain and within that there
are a number of courses running.  Each individual course has its own
coordinator / manager.  The "C" course is being run by Mary 
while Sonja is running the "Basics" course and "Raven" runs the "Security"
course.  Each course runs according to the personal style of its
coordinator but mostly each course is guided by the wishes of its
participants.

does that help at all?
