Wow ! i've got alot of catching up to do .
any ways i cant not see any good coming out of the foundation . It is moving towards regulating and paying the developers of bitcoin. making this a dangerous powder cake.
the last i heard of Nilam he was working on a way to track and indentify bitcoin users, airing the very idea of centralization.
A foundation that is created needs to be regulating the business side not working on menuplating the development of coins and the path bitcoin flows towards.
The bitcoin foundation is on a path of evil and only the early adopters and members of the foundation that are able to get into a position in the foundation. They are the only ones to benifit.
Again a foundation/collation only should regulate business and business best practices not the currency .
