Andrew's project was to deliver South-like functionality to trunk. South is a known quantity, and there have been discussions and threads about exactly what merging South into trunk would look like. And on top of all that, Andrew is the principle author of South, so he's well positioned to do the work. What's the feature set for a new Admin? What are the design goals? And most importantly, who is going to do the work? I'm not saying these questions can't be answered -- but the answers aren't clear at the moment (at least, not to me). Once we've got a clear plan, and someone who is available to deliver on that plan, then a Kickstarter might be appropriate.
