I would love to see an ongoing big wiki-style FAQ addressing all possible received critics of the singularity — of course, refuting the refutable ones, accepting the sensible.
A version with steroids of what this one did with Atheism.
Team would be:
one guy inviting and sorting out criticism and updating the website.
an ad hoc team of responders.
It seems criticism and answers have been scattered all over. There seems to be no one-stop source for that.
The authors are—or were—SI fellows, though—and the SI is a major Singularity promoter. Is that really a sensible place to go for Singularity criticism?

Here’s a pretty extensive FAQ, though I have reservations about a lot of the answers.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technological_singularity#Criticism lists some of the objections.
