I am working behind the scenes with a lot of other witnesses and stakeholders to try and figure out the best path forward.

Let him do what he wants with his stake, evidently we can fight off his voting. At least to a degree where he doesn't have full control. And while he's powering down we need to change governance so it's not 30 votes, but something more manageable.
Not yet, but governance needs to change. I've heard some talk about 10 votes or something to that degree. I'm sure this can be worked out over extensive talks, like everything here. :P
It is unlikely that the stakeholders in the community will build consensus around that idea. #3 is the biggest sticking point.
When that plan is done, would be nice to hear what you guys have decided.
I also think as a thought leader within this community, you should take a mending role and broker something between community and Justin Sun, I just don't feel like the tone was best.
Justin Sun is also taking a huge risk, this can all go to zero and with any businessman, I don't think that would be in his vision. From what I gather, i believe he is more looking for a return on investment and market Tron blockchain, we should try to see how best we can achieve all those objectives and preserve Steem blockchain.
It is also important to note that Steem path before the announcement wasn't sustainable and the ship was sinking, so witnesses should not even be entertaining business as usual. This is a stake base blockchain, if witnesses want a "hard-SteemExist", they should be prepared to out spend Justin and that isn't feasible as they were not even able to maintain operation before (financially).
We should also not push Justin Sun away, he is the only serious business man that has put in hand up and put his money behind it. He sees value and lets not throw that down the drain. The Steem token needs it, technically and fundamentally this kind of investment removes a dark cloud (financial) over its head and developers and witnesses can at least see a path of them getting reward for their work along with bloggers. I feel like Ned Scott was cornered and probably did what he saw was best for him and the people he was responsible for.
Excuse me?
Huge risk? HE'S the HUGE risk. And the ship wasn't sinking prior Justin, in fact we're OK after a full year of developments.
Justin had their opportunity to be 'nice', now he showed their real intentions. He just wanted to P&D us. 0 Value there.

In my mind, that opportunity is gone.
