Ironic that libera's governance was set up under a similar spirit.
Though frankly if Andrew Lee had ghosted freenode entirely that would've been a vast improvement overr what actually happened.
Do you know if the money wasnt stolen?
Thomas refused to give anyone else access to any of the bank accounts so nobody knows what he has done with the over $100k in funds we had.
I'd be quite interested to hear the Radix Projects governance plans to prevent a future single point of failure again. Not being able to contact the bill payer on the last project isn't helplessness, it's a failure of the created organizational structures to have planned redundancy, succession and legal accountability.
The Radix Project is trying to learn from our mistakes and do them better so one doesn't face a similar issue due to a singular person having too much control.
