@JohnFMelone Not yet. I think I have to treat the objections seriously and create some web content to explain things. DM me if you want.

@JohnFMelone I'm sure Matt doesn't need any more tweets at him, haha. But yes, I might have to write the FSF. And I will continue.

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone @photomatt I do offer support, and I do respect the contribution of the developers.

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone @photomatt It's possible to resell it a bad way. That's not what I want to do. #gpl is powerful. I want to use it for good.

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone: @photomatt probably has enough to worry about. @gravityforms (and others) should step up to the plate and clarify TM policy.

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone @photomatt I can't back down now. Something just feels wrong about this.

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone @photomatt Customer confusion: you can sell this but don't. And if you don't hide your face for doing it we will ostracize you.

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone I've actually encouraged him to contact me about it personally, but he won't outside the context of a "public shaming"

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone Not sure about that yet. I don't think 100% of everything Carl Hancock said/tweeted is reasonable.

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone There should be freedom to do what you want with it. The license means that anyone call it their own.

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone License keys, limitations on your use of the product. This sounds more like proprietary software, doesn't it?

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone There's more to it at this point in time. I don't like the way "products" are shaping the world of WordPress for end users.

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@JohnFMelone "Why Fork" -- Strictly out of respect for the developer's wishes. I think he makes a good point.

@pippinsplugins Well, I'm open minded. I want to understand and I respect you. But it sounds like a lot of stuff I've heard before.

[WP Share @wpsharenet]

@pippinsplugins I know that a lot of people feel that way. I am trying to understand that point of view.
