Drupal and Democracy

Valid Reason so far as I can fathom. Unfortunate that Dub only had to get repeatedly dismissed and flamed at.
Dries is a great man, but really.. the proposition of open-source communities being under the fatherhood of benevolent dictators, especially ones with new startups and in the hands of legalities and venture capitalists..isn’t particularly an ideal proposition.
I’m all for democratization, personally. Looks like it’s not to be, however.
