    I don't feel we should pay a dime to Barrabas for any of the charges. In my personal view, he kindly donated (without the community asking) money to help start. Whether we succeeded or failed, that money is gone.

    Exactly. He took a business gamble. He was dreaming big at first: saying that he imagined SN would become a major news aggregator. He'd already been prepared to sink 10k into this. He's bailed in the first month and is in far less than 10k. IMO he should take the hit and leave it be. We choose a name because the current one doesn't work. Story closed. Leave the dirty laundry off the front page and polls.
