Gavin Andresen – Jeff Garzik will represent Gavin
but I hope the discussions are gonna be public and not behind the closed doors one on one talks
Sounds like a total load of bullshit to me
Who the *&$@ is the Vermin to be involved?
Who the *^&$% is Jeff Garzik, period?
Who the ^&#$% do Brian Armstrong, Barry Silbert and Jihan Wu
think they are? (they will be footnotes in history while more relevant people could remain relevant for years to come)
And "Gavin" as a deserving category in it's own right?
