TheRegister article
 

This morning I woke up to find this article:
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2009/10...n_controversy/

The article cannot simply be dismissed* as TheRegister is a well respected and more importantly well read tech newspaper. I found it disappointing that Ray didn't reply to them. I know things are busy but the bad PR just took a step upwards. I've been using this product for years* and developing for it for a living for just as long* and I don't want to see this mess keep escalating.

Something has to change.

Edit: Why did this thread disappear within a minute of me posting* but then reappear again? The thread is not exactly inflammatory.

Edit2: Kier couldn't have put it in any better on twitter (I presume he doesn't mind this being posted* as after-all twitter is a public medium):

So sad to see vBulletin like this. Even if sales are great* the damage to reputation and goodwill may be irreparable
