It's a +1 for option 3: Keep the current Foundation and board of directors.
I feel we need to ignore those kind of people/comments as those are the one's who keep the community from moving forward! I know and trust the guys who are on the board and are the best for the community. It is these guys and extended team who will bring us the next release. Keep up the good work and I do hope one day to get back in to giving my free time again!
