It says above that Justin will be changing powering down to 24hrs to bring it in line with other blockchains.

Don't worry; if he manages to pull it off (which right now he can't, we stopped consensus by coming together as a community!), we'll just HardFork away. <- I'm kind of hoping for that anyway myself.
I'm not to worried, just a little anxious to move forward. Unfortunately, I doubt that forward movement will include the necessary changes to Steems governance, so this doesn't happen again.
