Comment (by thisisandrewpalmer):

 Our plugins are measured via our licensing and API system which is much
 more accurate and allows us to market more efficiently. It's not the fact
 that the data has been hidden on dot org, its the way the data was
 removed, if this is a community project then there should have been
 discussion around this.

 By simply removing a thing with zero discussion prior to removal, fully
 demonstrates to me, that WordPress is a community of one and whatever that
 one says - goes, no discussion, no explanations, no empathy. Any further
 explanation is moot, what is done is done and how it was done there is not
 a damn thing anyone without the keys can do about it.

 Reminder: The person that was charged to remove this item is paid by
 https://audrey.co/ who are an Investor in Automattic and the CEO of
 Automattic is Matt Mullenweg. No further explanation as to who
 ordered/authorised this deletion is required and, no one is as empowered
 as Matt to answer the call for a full explanation as to why a community
 project that relies on thousands of contributors leaves so much power to
 one individual. As director of WordPress, I imagine Josepha will be asking
 whether her position is untenable given (as far as I can tell), she was
 unaware of this major decision which has had a negative effect on so many
 contributors.
