I already voted yes. I agree this is centralised, but its no nearly so centralised as relying 100% on Rob to do all the coding :)
Im happy to see Gridcoin moving out of a purely volunteer phase and some professional develpment, its a very good sign.
However I would take slightly less capable amateurs, motivated by passion for the project, than greedy professionals any day; so lets keep the rewards for Gridcoin development 'reasonable' over time. This is no reflection on the current dev team, they have all the passion needed :)
