Firstly i have not formed an opinion on the "other guys" yet though the current guys are sub standard.

Let me ask
HOw or what are the other guys going to bring or do differently to the current board ?

What are there crednetials
What financial backing do they have ?
How are they going to address the cash burn ?
Where will they get funding from ?
What will be there priorities ?

As for cmc i would say a lot of pressure from the board would be getting put down on cmc. Radford from the AGM showed some discontent towards the board and the project but they have invested far too much to walk away or move slowly.
Would expect some sort of resolution to the payment and delays sooner than later.

Major news or a series of fluffy feel good announcements in the lead up to the EGM.
Expect fluffy feel good news over major news.

Cheers
