Is the affected associates of Vitalik, the benevolent dictator of Ethereum? Then this may get in.
I mention this because the DAO losses were address by a hard fork.
If enough money is at stake it would be advantageous for Vitalik and other core maintainers to allow for people to pay on getting their PRs accepted. This PR would restore I understand about >$100M in funds. This type of patch is surely worth money in order to accept.
At least if Vitalik and friends took money in order to do these types of arbitrary patch PRs to fix other people's problems, then it would at least be a fair playing field.
Is Vitalik and other core maintainers already getting paid by the people proposing these types of PRs?

- adrianN 9y agoIf you believe a system where people with more money get more votes to be fair.
- bhouston 9y agoAt least it wouldn't be based on who Vitalik knows personally. I would rather a transparent system that operates with known principles rather than one that is arbitrary and based on knowing Vitalik.
- davesque 9y ago> This type of patch is surely worth money in order to accept. Not necessarily. If accepting this proposal means that the community loses confidence in the platform, then there could be way more money to lose than just what is locked up in that dead contract. Does it seem likely they won't take that into consideration?
