We probably would have a hell of a time trying to get to finish it. :-)
The testing cycle could result in a few issues :)
Seriously, look at "Key Man" Insurance for projects. In the event of
your death, there's enough money to pay someone to take over the
project. I've never had to use it myself. But I have carried it.

It's not really about the project etc. it's more about, hmmmm,
etiquette. I'd like people to know if I've shuffled of this mortal coil
so they can all write nice things about me on their blogs etc.
In this modern age I find myself with several associates, colleagues and
friends that I've not actually met! While a in a regular, old fashioned
circle of friends, word will get out when someone starts pushing up the
daisies, the same cannot always be true of online friends.
