Also, this all has nothing to do with Grayjay unless the person who takes it over decides to start charging money for it. Anyone is free (libre) to maintain it and distribute it for free (gratis).
If you take over a project of this scale you need to make this your job and thus get paid. There's a good reason Louis hasn't just pushed this out as his hobby project but hired developers.
If you can't it won't happen. My point is more: If it was possible to take over, would it really happen? Extremely unlikely.
