Who cares? The Foundation always concentrated it's efforts mainly on the US. They are quite insignificant everywhere else in the world.

Agree Foundations just a US centered seemingly self appointed group, that others pay to join, more concern is the control over the code the core developers have., also the foundations input into various US regulations regarding bitcoin.

Gavin by his own admission only needs to convince 5 others and pretty much anything can be changed in the code. trustless system doesn't mean trust 5 random internet people (that could have any self serving personal interests, or paid by commercial interests) with the code.

In an opensource community why pay the core devs so much, really Gavin needs 100k? Correct me if I am wrong but last time I looked he had atleast 25k bitcoin?
