They didn't explicitly say anything on the blog post because they don't have power to higher anyone without getting permission from above, they can't even get new servers without getting permission first. The best way to know what going on is to follow the developers/admins comments who are very much involved within the discussion:
http://www.reddit.com/user/raldi/ is more open than others.
http://www.reddit.com/user/jedberg &
http://www.reddit.com/user/KeyserSosa are the other two admins
Edit: Raldi mentioned that they are getting offers from other CN properties (ie, Wired) to help them with sales/marketing.
