How can a single bad project destroy most of what the foundation has accomplished?
By having the solitary developer incorporate code they don't have the rights to, and no one around looking over their shoulder to peer review, leading to a lawsuit that results in depleting dollars and momentum from the organization.
Or, by running a project with such brazen disregard for quality or user consideration that they end up hurting the public's perception that the Apache brand stands for something meaningful; that it instead stands for allowing lots of small ponds with one big fish each.
Lots of different scenarios. Each of which could have a comeback, but the comebacks don't deny the possibility.
My sense of these discussions is that many old Apache members have argued about these question so many times that there is not much interest to rehash the issues all over again.
Yes, that would be called progress. :)
