[...] I am under the impression that theymos rather wants something solid than something thats done on time or done with a given amount of money. This has certainly limits, but as long as there are funds for the development I dont see an issue.

>inb4 Im brown nosing, have no idea, yadda yadda.

Thus far, theymos has spent 2.3 million dollars to reinvent develop bulletin board forum software, which is still only "about 85% done."
"About 85% done" in devspeak is "In Two Weeks" in ASIC_manufacturer_speak.
If we treat everything theymos says at face value.

Which I do not. I refuse to believe that a man in his right mind would venture to spend millions on new forum software, when developed & tested open-source shareware exists. I refuse to believe that such a man would also find an obscure, zero-web-presence company, and, without ever even meeting the principals, send it $350k and $100k monthly thereafter. I refuse to believe that such a person exists.

Finished forum software, if it ever materializes, will  just be a meaningless byproduct of making the donation coin spendable.
When you hear hooves, think horses.
