The developers are the real investors

If you go to the developers' website, you will see alot of people have given of their time and skills. I realize that Miro puts out some money, but asking a group of men and women who give their free time to help develop a product they believe in is quite a bit different. I think Miro will lose years of development time, which is probably not a good thing. The issue from the developers more than "control", is being able to deal with a company or organization they can trust. The community is important and it is probably what helps drive the developers, but nobody wants to work with people who say one thing and then do another. This guy Phoon from Miro is now trying to backtrack because he just lost months and years of development. Remember, they were working fine until he told them one thing about the foundation and then did another.
