In reply to Rafael Serna.

To me (remember me, folks?, that guy who tried to do The WordPress Helpers?), it sounds like another great example of how tone-deaf the core team is.

Yeah, sure, developers are notorious for not listening to real people because "they know better". But nothing about the way WordPress works seems to have evolved in a better direction.

Anyone else wondering when the $360MM the VC folks threw at Ma.TT is gonna actually pay off in a way that something with WordPress' mass ought to? I'll tell you this much: it won't happen until some actual management talent starts calling the shots.
