Or maybe I've had more experience at seeing things like this go bad than

You can not start a project of this magnitude without formal
introductions, honesty and integrity.
None of that is happening with the "Old Unix Admins"
The first priority of business needs to get the house in order.
This already has all the earmarks of endeavor that at best will fail and
at worst, just be an outright fraud.
1) You have people fluffying over hard facts with misleading statements.
2) You have a failure to identify the proponents and organizers upfront.
3) You have theological pandering not related to the expressed purpose of
the supposed project being bantered about.
4) You also have a failure of basic consensus as to the stated goals of the
project.
5) and you have purposefully misleading campaign which misidentifies the
organizers as "Old Time Unix Admins"
Enough
