I don't know.  What are the ideals of Luke and "wizkid057"?  I'm not even sure who the latter is, and I don't think either of them want this to be about their personal beliefs.

I think that you can tell a lot about their ideals just from the way the pool is set up.  For one, I think they believe in radical transparency (publishing the payment queue, all contributor info + hashrates, etc. on the site, no login required); 2nd, they place a high priority on fairness (CPPSRB is the fairest system around IMO -- not sure if fair is the exact right word, but it pretty much gets at what I mean here); 3rd, they value simplicity (lack of login/username system is best example; to start mining, simply provide your BTC address.  Can't get much simpler than that.).

All of which are great traits for pool operators IMO.
