Sure, but it is possible to convince the founder that it is in the best interest of the project to officially decentralize it since that's how it has been operationally working anyway and also because that is the most effective way to grow the project. > project.

Assuming that the grandfather is the home owner, this is like trying to convince the grandfather that it is in the best interest of the home itself that he relinquish unilateral control of the home to the family trust so that the entire family can contribute directly to the well-being of the home. Now the question of who the grandfather is or how to convince them is the question we're discussing right now. That is, is FSF the grandfather or RMS? Can the FSF unilaterally decide, will/should it decide that way or should/will they confer with RMS? None of this is an indication of a criminal mind. Siddhesh
