Shed light on "RH decide on its own how to spend their money without
asking to others" ? 
Or the truth of "having job title not decided by the community" ?

"Community manager" != "manager". Yes, the title doesn't express it
quite well, create some confusions and I would suggest to people in
similar position to use "community gardener" as Dave Neary told me once
to emphasise the difference.
But if you would look at what I think to be usual US job titles, you
could see stuff like "office manager", "key account manager" and various
other titles that doesn't hold much managerial responsibility in the
traditional sense ( ie, managing people, deciding what others people do,
etc ).

So focusing on job title rather than the acts of the person seems to be
a quite weak foundation for any kind of conclusion, especially since the
last part of your mail seems to imply that you do not know what is in
the job description.

Adam demonstrated skills by working on QA for another distribution ( ie
mandriva ) for several years, handling discussion with community,
handling tests on Cooker, etc, etc. It is all archived on ml, you can
check. So claiming he had no history with the community is either a lie,
or a myopic view of the community by restricting yourself to Fedora QA
while ignoring the free software community at large for no good reasons.
