/** My observation/comments are specific to smaller and local activities.
Case in point, the FOSS related conferences I have attended. Only
handful of volunteers come forward to organize, execute, and manage the
events. Invariably, I have seen the same few faces (of the dedicated
individuals) working their a** off.

Its not only volunteering. However, the management of volunteers. If there
is a pool of 10 to 20 volunteers, and if there is no one to manage it, then
it will disappear..
Debian is one example of volunteer base.. but there is a core team which
manages all..
similarly, wordpress, and other popular open source softwares are well
managed by core team.
If we could form a core team to define a clear objective manage the
volunteers, we can bring about a change.
Expecting everything to happen out of itself may not be practical..
Just my few cents
