Totally over-dramatic. And way beyond annoying at this point.
Dewald, quit your whining and either get back to coding and doing
something productive, or maybe you should aim your posts at this group

Twitter has now displayed a distinctive predatorial stance towards the
developer ecosystem.
That's incredibly over dramatic, I think. We have, and continue to
maintain a platform that will allow for a vibrant ecosystem. We want
everybody to succeed.

developer ecosystem.
The ecosystem is encouraged to innovate, to expend time, effort, and

It will be wise of Twitter to release an official statement regarding
continued developer support. Perhaps in the form of an Evan blog post.
When you read the commentary on tech blogs following Fred's post, it
should be clear that it is not only developers who see the threat of

and development of the core system, and allow us to add the bells and
whistles as required by our own set of users.
