I'm so glad to see such a positive step in this conflict. It really shows how much Matt genuinely cares about the community and how he's willing to take the higher ground. WP Engine sent a cease-and-desist to WP.org, and Matt decided to keep providing the free service to them temporarily, prioritizing end users, even though it increases his costs for WP.org, and without WP Engine stepping back on the trademark infringements. |

Yes. Saying "We have generously decided to give you 72 hours to figure out how to mirror all this content, actually mirror it, and then plug it in, before we reinstate a block affecting your end users again. Oh, yes, I do realize it's 3pm PT on Friday afternoon and the clock is ticking, no, not 3 business days, we're turning the block back on at 4pm PT on Monday afternoon" is entirely positive, empathetic to those users, and shows genuine care for the community...
Or maybe not.

Despite you saying so in multiple places here, WPEngine did not fire the first shots in this shitshow.
