In my organization, a project manager does these things (and a lot more):

Ensure that a requirements document exists, and is approved by both the
customer and the developer.

Work with developers to create a list of all work steps necessary to
complete the project.

Create a project schedule from developer estimates for each item on the
work list, and update the schedule as needed if additional steps are added
or a step takes longer than anticipated.

Communicate with customers to keep them informed of the project's progress.

Schedule meetings with the customer as needed.

Ensure that a test plan exists and is carried out.

Coordinate project delivery and installation.

Coordinate bug reports and bugfixes.

An excellent list, I would add that frequently the project manager has significant budget responsibilities as well.

In an informal sense, the project manager is the point person for keeping a project on track, on budget, and completed in a timely fashion.

Software engineers, working FOR a project manager, frequently feel that the project manager is providing no added value.  This is NOT true.

What does this have to do with Python?

Please don't encourage people to choose a random, inappropriate newsgroup/
mailing list to ask unrelated questions.

Some slack can be given to regulars who raise interesting OT questions, 
but not drive-by posters.
