As the discussion seed is a post from Mihails, I want to recall 
the author [1]:

"Didn't intend to chime in, but no, that was not what I have 
meant at all. My stance is that as long as current leadership 
remains in charge and keep sames attitude, no amount of money or 
developer time will fix D.

What is the point in hiring someone to manage things if Walter 
still can do stuff like -dip1000? For me moment of understanding 
this was exact point of no return."

What are the opinions on that, specifically on the attitude?
