Milan @Jeffro – I know they are not real forks, thats why I put that word inside quotes. To further explain that “users don’t want simplicity” point since Twitter people might get it wrong: I got impression while reading about other “simple” tools that simplicity is their only selling point. That doesn’t sell, or at least didn’t in the past. Users don’t want to just write text and don’t have anything else on page. If they wanted that, they would already use other simple tools, or WordPress would have gone to other direction. So in order to get with demand, “simple” tools would need to add features, and eventually become what they were against, or users would switch to more powerful tools.
