I think the correct way to view this is as a courtesy notice that "Hey, that thing you might have used for free is being discontinued." That's it. There is zero reason to expect FOSS developers to be schooled in good PR or something. He may think that spelling out his logic for his decision is useful information to other people. He may even be right about such an assumption. I would not infer that he is intentionally being petty, kvetching per se, etc. It might be accurate, but who cares? He published a courtesy notice. He could have shut it down with zero announcement. I am reminded of this comment I made 3 months ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17824166 |
