Well, with all due respect, it was I who let Haejin in on the project and Wes was never comfortable with it. I take the blame.

@kaliju,
Wes and I were soldiers ... we are to hold ourselves to a different standard.
This was a huge, and self-evident, error in judgement and compromise in standards. I would have resigned from the project before accepting it. Wes should have done the same ... an insight which is undoubtedly self-apparent in hindsight.
Kaliju ... we've never met, but mate ... give yourself a swift kick in the ass as well. What the f*ck were you thinking? Of all the people.
In any event, you guys are damned lucky this all happened before launch. @dstors is an excellent idea that will be good for the blockchain and I truly hope it succeeds. I'm in advertising ... this incident is actually valuable free publicity: As PT Barnum once said, "If you want to draw a crowd, start a fight." Considering the allegations and counter-allegations ... people will 'consider the source.'
If a lesson is to be learned, so as to prevent the mistake from being repeated, it is, however, imperative that you hold to account those responsible for making it ... yourselves.
Be more careful who you climb into to bed with.

@kaliju, don't beat yourself up to bad man. @quillfire is right, you don't get hit by the enemy you see though, and luckily, this was only a flesh wound. Now you know, and so does everybody else. So look on the bright side, you just might have saved someone else's project a worse fate.
"Wise men profit more from fools than fools from wise men; for the wise men shun the mistakes of fools, but fools do not imitate the successes of the wise."

@appalachain & @kaliju,
Good quote, excellent insight.
