 * So let me get this straight: someone who has created and maintained this plugin
   for over a decade has had it ripped from their control and taken over by WordPress?
   
   How does that inspire trust in this platform?I will no longer be building anything
   for WordPress and I will be steering any clients and others who ask what platform
   to use AWAY from WordPress at every opportunity I get.

 * If it’s just a fork, how come ACF isn’t on this plug-in repo anymore and you 
   redirected to this?
 * Nice try.
