An update to the above that saddens me to my core:
Well, fuck. I guess the PSF is willing to compromise their principles for $1.5 million after all.

The PSF have enough reputation with me personally that I'm not concerned.
If you have the opportunity to steal a couple of million from the Barrons and in turn offer them basically nothing. then that is *good actually*
It would be useful to scrutinise the text of the agreement as that is where the legal traps are that would force the PSF to do silly things that harm the community.
i.e. Take their money and damn their eyes.
