Too much talk from people not willing to do the heavy lifting.

Since 1998.
Well in this case the people doing the talking are also committing
themselves
to the lifting so I guess you would say here that the advocates of
change are
on the side of the angels.
I trust you are not dedicated to becoming a permanent member of the
opposition!! If so I might be tempted to say the worst aspect of the
current
system is that there are too many people determined to deny the need for
change irrespective of merit.
Sad, I second on Dan's answer for #4 question. It's not that we opposite
it. It's faith that we don't have. It's not first time for people to keep
talk with no action. It's called bikeshed.
The share/gnome/ -> share/ project was very successful, because I have
pushed it hard. I did 90 committed in MC CVS per day about two or three
times and did a lot of work on hundreds of port.
Whomever start to talk will have to be expect to do a lot of works to get
success. I suggest you to get start to setup a team, setup ports
development somewhere, and make sure you have changes available. Then we
will starting to have a faith on this project.
Cheers,
