RE: S+ Foundation: Proposal [V1]
Out of all the proposals I have reflected on (and they are all excellent), this particular proposal is very well thought out and addresses many concerns that I have had regarding possible unethical behavior by future Foundation Directors/Members, whether that behavior might be intentional or unintentional.
As I understand, through reviewing the proposals so far submitted, most members of the Foundation will work pro-bono. Even so; those distributing and proposing funding for projects will have a great deal of influence and could be subject to bribery, extortion, etc. @ura-soul's Proposal Introduction includes an image (a very funny one at that) addressing the inherent issues when dealing with the duality that is part of the human condition.
There is no doubt in my mind that everyone involved in this process has very good intentions for the most part. Then again; historically we have seen that some have followed the thought process that the ends justify the means.

While I appreciate your voting my comment @ura-soul, please remove the vote. It will make it easier for @guiltyparties to review the comments (when he sees a comment has been upvoted, he then knows he has read the comment). Once again, thank you for the vote of confidence. I appreciate it greatly.
Oh ok, I missed that
All good.
That's absolutely correct. There's always that concern, particularly for honest individuals unused to dealing with less than honest offers. I think a revision will have to address attempted outside manipulation of the Foundation members and attacks on Foundation members, which may preclude those members from doing their jobs.
