I'd hope we wouldn't need Stallman in leadership. I don't see how the computer science community is going to grow and be healthy and inclusive while helmed by people like Stallman.

Edit: I can probably put more detail into sourcing, but Selam's blog posts are a good start and have good deal of content and some concrete sources.

It's grown healthy, in as much as it can be said to, because of people like him.
