[wp-hackers] Plugin update & security / privacy

[Robin Adrianse]

How are your responses constructively debating the issue at hand? Nothing
personal, but IMO this is the wrong kind of approach from your position. So
if an individual using the open source software (which theoretically anyone
can contribute to) is questioning what a feature of the software is worth,
you tell them to put up and shut up, or leave altogether?

I may regret sending this email, but this response just stoked a reaction
from me.
