Overall, the WordPress folks have done a huge disservice to the community and their reputation by not handling this situation better. And I hope they’ve learned from it, but from everything I’ve read, they don’t appear to even grasp the gravity of what happened because they don’t live/work in the real world. It’s the same problem with how new versions are handled, they don’t understand how WordPress is used in the real world and they keep adding new features that make them happy, but not those of us who use it.
