Good read, gives me a lot of hope for this project.

I look forward to an exciting future with all of you.

(Also- hopefully this wasn't posted already)

I guess it kinda matters in that people like me certainly won't be giving any code contributions, which for an open source project can be critical to its long-term health.

But devs also tolerate and use tons of code and the licenses that Richard Stallman wrote, even if he's a huge creepball that a bunch of other free software orgs had to back away from.

So we'll see. I also wouldn't rule out a fork of it just so that it's officially ran by a less controversial group.
