_I'm_ not dismissing him as a ranting loon. He makes some valid points if you are capable of looking past the adrenaline/testosterone-fueled syntax. Your dismissive reply to his post is arrogant, at best.


Rather than his post being "an over reaction", I think the resulting furor shows that your saying "The rollout could have been handled better by SixApart" is an understatement of epic proportions.


I think the best assessment of this whole MT license thing can be found here:

MT users seem to have made the mistake of equating a free version of the software with Open Source software, which it is (and has been) NOT. The way Six Apart handled all of this just woke a lot of people up to that fact.
