It is really strange that the decision to create a new project was so
opaque when it was motivated to be a more "transparent project".
They could've started to be more transparent already with the decision to
create a new project.

Maybe the answer for the need of an external reboot might be not in the
names that jumped into but on those left behind.
Maybe it was easier to create a new project than to boot out the problems.

My 2 cents,
