While I am totally prepared to wait for the FREE and exceptional software that is known as wordpress, it is simply bad form for any company to not communicate with its users. It makes WP look a bit disorganized, shows a lack of leadership, creates an environment of rumor and speculation and gives their competition ammo as was the case in Anil’s post last week where he tee’d off of the WordPress non-release….. in short, it is bad form. When you come out and communicate to your users and set realistic expectations that you can execute or even admit a mistake has occurred, you disarm them…. they are much less likely to gripe and become anxious….. plus honest communication is the best policy. A simple “we’ve bitten off a bit more than we can chew with this release and we need an extra week, month, year” would stop all rumors and speculation and soothe users who may be on the anxious side…..

Consolidation, consolidation, consolidation!!! The growth of WP was quite “inflationary”, so some consolidation is definitely needed. Yes, I know the desire to overtake yourself on such a successful product is too hard to withstand. But sometimes its better to take a deep breath and give it the time it takes.

I think I prefer something closer to a six-month release cycle. If there are the necessary interim security patches should the need arise, having to upgrade a product 4 times a year is a little aggressive to me. I understand that there are great ways to improve and grow the product base, but it really puts a pinch on plugin developers, theme developers and designer/developers who use WordPress and include performing upgrades as a part of their basic services. I wonder if the same isn’t true for those contributing code to the release(s)?
