in the wake of Blender's unfortunate, "dropping a banana peel on the ground and slipping on it"-type post a few days ago, i feel like it should be noted that they did, in fact, post a response today where they apologized and announced policy changes and open discussions that i think pretty reasonably address the problems. thank you, blender.
