I just mentioned how things run at AUR how I see it, by no means I wanted to compare it with NLG (I don't know how busy the NLG dev team is).
You are stating that (the Aur team is busy IRL) is the reason for the slower development (and not the foundation) - however the NLG team is likely just as busy, so that statement can't possibly be true.
This of course does not mean that it is the foundation for sure, there could be many other reasons (A higher quality team, a more dedicated team, a more motivating environment, a better community, better leadership etc. etc.), but your reason for discounting the foundation as a possible factor is certainly incorrect as the NLG team is indeed very busy IRL as well.
That's just all assumptions (both from my and your side)... and a discussion I don't feel like having (I didn't want discuss AUR matters here as it is off-topic). My experience so far is that the AUR foundation is not slowing development. I speak from a personal point of view. If team members say they are busy IRL, I don't question that. Everyone should do what they think is right. If spending more time with family, work or study results in lesser productivity in our team, well so be it. I don't feel like having a contest about which team is the most busiest IRL.
That's all I'm going to say about it.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/auroracoin-empowering-financial-freedom-1044432These are the names of the Auroracoin development team and Auroracoin foundation found on the AUR ANN.
Pétur Árnason (Skarfur) - Chairman of the Auraráð foundation (IS)
Hermann Finnbjörnsson (apcoins) - Boardmember of the Auraráð foundation (IS)
Hlynur Þór Björnsson (dinobotta) - Boardmember of the Auraráð foundation (IS)
Craig Dellandrea (bimmerhead) - Community development (CA)
Martin Jansen (LTEX) - Marketing & PR (NL)
Jess Foddrill (ny2cafuse) - Developer (US)
Myckel Habets (biomike) - Developer (NL)
Lynn Miller (24kilo) - Developer (AU)
Tom Hendriks (thsminer) - Developer (NL)
I am not even taking the time to talk about the EFL foundation or the Bitcoin foundation in the Netherlands.
We all know it is a big mess and there is no development.
I am going to take it a little bit closer.
How is the development and progress of AUR?
Please tell me how being a foundation makes the coin so more better compared to NLG?
So take your time explaining about the edge the AUR foundation has got on NLG in regards to development.
I see the names LTEX, Biomike and thsminer listed on the team.
Well guys pretty funny story as LTEX is the one that is screaming loudest he wants NLG to be a foundation.
Biomike and thsminer as his underling follow him in his quest.
I would say there is a big conflict of interest here isn't there guys?
Also the names ny2cafuse and 24kilo sound very familiar to me within the Gulden history.
I am not going to talk about their role since ny2cafuse politely asked me to leave the Criptoe debacle out of this.
LTEX being the head of Marketing & PR is doing an awesome job.
Just as awesome as his 1680club project and kwartjeterug for Gulden
Let's be honest 1680club, kwartjeterug and Marketing & PR for AUR are all an EPIC fail.
And now he is going to come with the magical GULDEX!
I do not understand how people are actually listening to this guy.
Biomike as a member of the AUR dev team has also has done an excellent job right?
What did you guys do in all that time, as far as I know just coming up with a new wallet?
Now let's take a look at the development and Marketing & PR of NLG so far.
May I remind you that NLG does not even have a guy for Marketing & PR and is not a foundation!https://timeline.gulden.com/ <--- Enough said, actions speak louder than words.As far as you ask me the only reason these guys want a foundation, is that it gives them a better opportunity to take over NLG and get rid of the current devteam.
Yes I have said it, they tried it once with the Criptoe team to get rid of GJ and that failed and now they are trying it an other way.
Good luck guys,instead of causing drama with NLG invest the time in AUR and Guldex
