That sounds a bit like a politician not wanting to admit that they've abandoned a policy or goal! ;)
It does seem to be the case that it has been decided that the earlier ideals of *full* transparency and no hierarchy were naive and have been abandoned.

Thanks geni.
So, to put it crudely, the talk of full transparency and lack of hierarchy is now viewed as just naive idealism that existed at the start of the project, and which has now been abandoned?

Not so much that--as a great many things are done openly. I think it's more a general agreement that some things, by their very nature, can't be done openly.
