Thank you for sharing this with us. One of the main issues is that many people (including governments) don't really understand how the protocol works. Mt.Gox incident is the companys' fault, not Bitcoins.
It will take time for them to understand.
MTGox incident has brought many points to Anti-Bitcoin Community.I think now it needs a lot of time to change people opinion to positive after that incident.
That's a problem of the people. MTGox has zero impact on my view of Bitcoin.

On your view - yes. But I think the average joe that just heard about Bitcoin in the media has a negative feeling when he hears the word Bitcoin, especially because of the MtGox incident and the very negative media coverage on this topic.
