Maybe. The defensiveness could likely be that in many rebrands things tend to get lost in the scuffle (e.g. documentation not fully up to date; difficult to find references to some subproject's new name; checkbox for feature still listed on the enterprise version's landing page; assumption that it was made closed-source). The devs just want to get ahead of that as much as possible.
- grey-area 10y agoThere is absolutely no need for this rebrand, because they're not actually getting rid of the old brand, they're trying to reuse it for something different, which is insane. Hence the defensiveness. They know this will cause problems and complaints. They can't get ahead of the complaints without actually fixing them, by reversing the decision.
