I agree with the sentiment of this article, I have seen the best projects run by technical individuals. What we do on our projects though is we have an administrator, who reports to the lead, they are tasked with field anything non-technical so where in Scrum the manager / PM is the one running around dealing with the impediments, in our process we just have an assistant that does it, but they report to the Lead and take their direction from the Lead. This is nice because it keeps technical people solely focused on technical and creative problems and allows them to offload pure administrative tasks to an administrator.
