same here. I'm a good coder, but who has TIME to audit every damned thing?
we do need auditing services. it should be non-profit and community/trust based. ie, like most opensource things.
I don't like a VENDOR being in control. I want it to be 'we the people' so to speak. that way its not political and not under some profit (or even government) directive, one way or another.

The problem are pure business guys who understand everything the MBA tought them, but don't have a true appreciation for the type if business they are running.
That is true for almost everyone working for a company. When you look for a job, you look for something that is somewhat related to your interests and knowledge. It's never your dream or exactly what you wanted to do.. but it's close enough. How do you know that the MBA's don't feel the same way? I think this kind of thinking is exactly the problem geeks have about other people - putting down their knowledge or interests.
How are they a pain in the Butt of their neighbors?
You know, maybe it has something to do with the fact that US and other western countries dumped them on area and just said to the existing people that the land now belongs to israel?
