Effectively no. I suppose someone could volunteer to be it.

I am not favouring that for the reason you just mentioned. 
But up to date doc in the wrong place beats out of date doc in the wrong
place.
That said, I'm hopeful he will agree to use one of the other places.

Note that at the company I work at, there is also this problem of docs in
multiple systems that each have their strengths and reasons to be. This is a
place with managers that can tell others to do, and no consensus has been
found either.
So, I'm being realistic :)

I don't quite agree with that statement. There are projects with a list of
developers and no dictator in charge like linux. Some do quite well.
