I never said he violated GPLv2. I'm just saying that his behavior is damaging the project. As a leader, he's bonded to a responsibility to guide and nurture the community. Attacking a participant of said community for no reason (or a pathetic one, like the revisions stuff) is not what most expect from a good leader.
- mvuijlst 2y agoIt's not a pathetic reason. I'm 100% on Mullenweg's side here. The DNA of WordPress is to keep revisions of everything. You may not care about the history of your website, many people do.
- yunohn 2y agoIt also costs very little in DB for the vast majority of users, so it’s a classic case of Private Equity squeezing money from their product.
- rpgbr 2y agoI guess access to plugins is way more WP DNA than post revisions, and yet Matt's own WordPress.com restricts access to plugins to more expensive tiers only. (Not to mention the “confusion” he mentions regarding WP Engine, which is explicit with WordPress/WordPress.com.)
