No, that's an ultimatum and I never proposed that.  I proposed that I
have a vote.  My vote would be collected with all the other votes and
the collective vote would determine the funded projects.  If my
project does survive the vote, I accept that as part of the voting
process, without asking for my money back.

My point is that work funded from a large budget should be determined
by the donors, not Jordan or other members of the core team.  That's
the purpose of a vote.  If Jordan and other members of the core team
don't like that model, I expect to see other movements which do.
