I truly do hope that you're right about this, but I have a sneaking suspicion that there's plenty of people out there either too blindly greedy, or too stupid to not try this.

Looks like you're right - there is an attempt underway to privatize the grant again - I don't know if BTCoin is behind it, or if his story is true that he sold up, but whoever has those coins is battling to win the grant. Here's the last vote -

Candidate Eliminated: MVTEoEof5RLVTWaTzheC1oUci1f7gp9UzL 30190
Candidate Elected: MVTEoEoXmYzFydRfg5uNJRewt9tZ329fAN (42149)

Since then, more coins have moved to support this address, and it will soon win the vote.

As I mentioned before, if the owners of the coin collectively are not prepared to support development, I'm not prepared to continue to volunteer my efforts for free. If the grant falls into private hands, the coin is failed in my view and I'm out.

So, last ditch appeal . . .

1) If you're not voting, send 0.00000001 to MVTEoEoXmYzFydRfg5uNJRewt9tZ329fAN
2) If you are voting, make sure MVTEoEoXmYzFydRfg5uNJRewt9tZ329fAN is your number 1 preference
3) If you have funds in an exchange, put them in a wallet and vote

Good luck.
