@cwebber I am looking forward to this thread. So much analysis starts with either doubting the intentions or from some level of misinformation or misunderstanding, and it's hard to even begin addressing that since they're usually not willing to listen.

A lot of stuff depends on them reaching at least some of the goals, especially an independent PLC directory (or equivalent if replaced), and informed critique is vital to keeping things on track. :blobfoxlurk:

edit: I just realized you linked my post! I had my reasons for subscribering it, mostly building a newsletter so the particulars of platforms I don't control matter less. Being stuck at 100 subscribers for a year was a little discouraging, and it's up about 20 now.
