Perhaps, but either way as a ST2 user I'm looking for a replacement and once ST2 does not meet my needs I'll either go back to emacs full time or look towards something else for light weight stuff.

I've already movers most of my we stuff to IntelliJ/WebStorm. I really liked ST2 but was a little miffed that right after I bought my licence ST3 was pushed to the forefront of the site without a reasonable upgrade plan.

I do certainly agree that the new-version / upgrade thing has been poorly handled. If nothing else, announcing it and causing the split should have been followed by rapid development instead of over a year of slow beta releases.
