Andreas is well known name for people who're involved with Bitcoin. I've seen Andreas all interviews and regularly makes notes from his expert comment. I've never seen someone speak so fluently about technology and economy at same time. I love logic's, warrants and metaphor he quotes. He's so soft spoken and patient while explaining.(Only thing, I don't like is- his ant colony example). Now, when foundation member is arrested and therefore resigned. We've an important seat vacant. What do you think guys about Andreas for Bitcoin Foundation? I think, he much more capable spokesman then Patrik or any other member from Bitcoin Foundation(while speaking about Bitcoin and economy with general public). They must absorb him for community good.

Not sure people will be lining up to join the Bitcoin Foundation at the moment.
That's why I've initiated post here to encourage him. Hope, he's active on forum.
I mean people with all the "encouragement in the world" won't be sticking their heads above the parapet. Why put yourself through the USA security mill?
People with clear conscience won't be afraid to do that.
