Keep moving forward. You are doing a fantastic job. Don't get sidetracked by a few critics. Most people here support you and even if not , they can create their own foundation or club.
i do support the bitcoin foundation
i just (and only) have the fear that mtgox uses this power to convince all bitcoin businness to copy his definition of tainted coins.
Why are you afraid of it? Did you steal anyone's wallet?
I am a supporter of the Bitcoin Foundation, and I think taint is a horrible idea. All proposals to implement it so far are ineffective and are more likely to hurt naive bitcoin newbies than the thieves themselves. The people who are 'out of the know' concerning taint will accept them, giving thieves a good or service in exchange, and they'll be stuck holding the bag.
Keeping bitcoins fungible is important.
This thread isn't for debating the merits (or lack thereof) of taint. However, there are plenty of threads that cover why this a bad idea already:
