I think IRD is good project. However there is no 'concept' with IRD so far. For example 'Intensecoin = VPN', anonymity is very common among the monero forks. 'People are power' is just not enough.
The idea is that community does suggestions what to develop. Steve has done a great job doing developments thus far, but I think if we want to make some big changes this coin needs a bigger developer team.
