    initial v1  
    88Samuel, like jb, I feel like we're hearing a broken record about the broken plugin directory which doesn't serve users. The plugin directory is a tremendous success. It doesn't give users trouble. It only needs some slight design tweaks. A better implementation and presentation of search filters would do no harm. There is no reason to perform open heart surgery and cut its out heart out. The free and relatively democratic plugin directory is **one of WordPress's great success stories**.

    10 Like the EU's unpopular Lisbon Treaty are we just supposed to keep voting until we say yes? I'm not sure we'll go along with it. It would be great if you, Konstantin and Mark Mullenweg would start listening to us, the people who have built WordPress over the last ten or twelve years. In particular, it seems strange to hear from you what WordPress users want. While those at whom you lecture built the most popular CMS in the world, you were working on Camino (great browser, btw - pity it's no longer with us).

    1212The ramifications of the Lisbon Treaty planted the seeds of the EU's potential self-destruction. It would be a pity if this plugin directory makeover into an insiders only, hidden and rigged search, advertising style sham did the same thing to WordPress's user and developer community. When you lose the developers, you'll lose WordPress.
