Once again: learn from history.

What we are seeing here is a small group of people with some skills in
social engineering bullying Michael and manipulating occasional
contributors in order to take control of the project. Just like we saw
in the months leading to the attempted hostile takeover.

What I cannot say is whether the purpose is only a matter of
self-interest, steering the gratis work of Michael and other brilliant
contributors towards applications that are profitable for companies, or
whether some of them have more nefarious purposes, like some kind of
supply-chain attack.
