This mutual bashing here is inappropriate and infecting this nice thread with a very bad taste.
I think this project needs a foundation with several trusted members and a multi sig wallet (who will these members be? good question).
Other than that I have to say honestly that I do not feel we currently have any sufficiently trustworthy willing candidate to take over the helms (Sorry guys, but this is my feeling, nothing personal).
I liked the fact that this project took decisions by voting and that people where willing to volunteer. That was the spirit that mde this project something different.
