IMHO, it should be easier to get adminship as a) it's No Big Deal(r) and b) all actions can now be reversed - and users can quickly be dysopped. The three month tenure, however, I find silly - if someone was good enough and behaved well for those three months then obviously they should be allowed to continue. Desysopping after three months would turn the whole RfA process into a lottery-like game - "if it's no big deal, why can't I continue as an admin?".
I also disagree with not allowing users to object to more than one RfA every three months - Wikipedia is not a democracy.

Nice. You appear to be going in the same direction as me, but I want it even more radical. :) In particular, your system still requires people to _ask_ for adminship (which, again, would be analogous to requiring them to apply for editing privileges instead of just letting people register freely), and I find one month a bit excessive. Other than that, I think you hit the nail on the head :)
