Regarding hiring without consulting the community, there is a reason that companies hire a CEO to make all the decisions, rather than having all stakeholders weigh in on every hire. We are giving Ron room as Executive Director to do his job, and even if he makes mistakes on the way (and he undoubtedly will) I vastly prefer that to decision-by-committee.
Ron and David both told me two days ago that their goal is to dissolve the foundation and have *all* decisions determined by proof-of-stake voting. They are trying to put the governance of the protocol into the protocol itself.
Proof-of-stake voting will almost certainly not ask every person to weigh in on every decision (that would be horribly inefficient). Instead, we'll elect someone to be in charge of a block of money for a block of time. At the end of that time, we'll elect someone else (or the same person, if we like how they ran things) for the next block of money and block of time. The size of the blocks of money and blocks of time will also be decided by proof-of-stake voting.
For instance, we might vote to give Ron authorization to spend 5% of the project funds over the following three months. If Ron does a terrible job, we might elect somebody else after that. If we like how Ron spent the money, we might elect him again.

I tried it out yesterday and the process was easy to use and understand.

How many MCs were given for every BTC donated to the Exodus address?
100To a normal BTC client, what you received are just a very small amount of BTC, but according to the MSC protocol, you received certain amount of MSC and the amount was encoded in the blockchain and has nothing to do with the amount of BTC you received. That small number of BTC is just there to satisfy the anti-dust requirement.

100For example, if you have address A, B, and C in a wallet and A address have some MSC in it. When you want to send someone MSC, you have to send a small amount of BTC from A, and not all clients allow you to specify A as the sending address.

Mastercoin-explorer is lagging behind because of a piece of recursive validation code I added. I think I must have a loop somewhere because I found the code eating up 7GB of ram and still validating transactions this morning. Looking into it now 
How is that for timing? Hehe. Masterchest.info scanning engine is offline, should have it back up in a couple of hours. Thanks!
EDIT: All back online & up to date now, apologies for the delay in displaying new transactions.

By the way, is there any further word on the 'share buyback' proposal? If it has been cancelled, I'd like to adopt one position. If it is forthcoming, I'd like to adopt another position. If it is still being debated, I'd like to adopt another. Part of 'full disclosure' is mentioning the state of this proposal. Can we have a word on this please?
It is on hold for now. I still want to do it though. We'll probably be debating it for a long time, but I'll wear the opposition down eventually
