Why I am quitting Drupal
no I'm not quitting Drupal -
but mercmobily, developer of the FriendList module, is disenchanted with developing for Drupal and posted a rant titled Why I am quitting Drupal
(actually, merc has discovered life apart form the internet and is pursuing some personal growth, and is not totally "quitting" - but looking for a maintainer for the module)
I did not even read the "long" version of merc's post - it is clear that there were some private discussions that were interpreted in certain ways, and now the thread is devolving into some rather ugly business. And when it gets ugly on d.o. it gets really ugly!
[EDIT the thread has been locked by d.o. moderators, after getting 29 posts of repetitive tit-for-tat]
no I'm not quitting Drupal - but I appreciate how difficult it is to moderate and contribute to such an amorphous community with so many talents and egos!

I read the whole thread and some other related threads. Sometimes I like to Gossip. I am happy for mercmobily for finding someone special in his life.
