Probably not, as I still would have promised him to create
blog.php.net if he successfully pulled of two updates.

I don't see this as a mess either. We tried to do something new with
out dead frontpage - which we have been hoping to achieve for many
many years now. Unfortunately it didn't work out.

It did not create security issues in PHP. It did not result in data
loss. It didn't harm anyone.

We've learned that people that flame us for not changing and not
accepting contributions from new people.
The same people also flame us for changing and accepting contributions
from new people.

Its easy to hate on things. Its difficult to try to move forward and
test out new things. At least he tried.
Now lets not be making this into something it isn't.
