I am truly impressed and grateful for what open-source and community effort has accomplished in response to certain developments in the scene. What I am seeing is something I have wanted for a WHILE now. Sure I was unhappy about... certain things... but it ended up being a blessing in disguise. Thank you to everybody involved. This is so AWESOME.
