Hi, as it’s come up a few times in the comments: Tea completely unrelated to Homebrew other than happening to have the same creator. Homebrew has zero connection to anything related to Tea and Max hasn’t been involved with Homebrew for the best part of a decade.

Mike McQuaid, Homebrew Project Leader and Homebrew maintainer for the last 15 years.

Hi Mike, Thank you for the clarification. To avoid future confusion, could you please suggest that the author of Tea removes the following information from their website?

> Led by the creator of Homebrew Max Howell, tea is Homebrew’s spiritual successor.

That's up to the community to ask, not me. It's not up to me what Max or Tea says on the internet, sorry.

It's worth noting the opposite direction: generally when an open-source project considers another to succeed it, it is noted on their homepage/GitHub repository. We (Homebrew) do not state Tea is a successor because, from our perspective, it is not.
