First of all, I accept and respiect your decision and really don't want to apply for a reconsideration.
When I noticed that today morning I also thought I will not react on that.
But I really feel I have to make some comments on AlTheKiller's notes. I will make it short.
AlTheKiller, your points are all accepted but one:
" Many novice linux/xbmc users came to our forums complaining that XBMC didn't work and they couldn't get to a GUI after following "the minimal install guide in our wiki."
The guide was working for 99,9% of the users (and there were a huge number of novice users started with), and you never had to support that! Nor you did, anyway... There was no increasement of support workload on you, but I strongly beleive a decreasement. So, your above statment is a bit offensive.
Another note: I was begging to you peronally several times for suggestions what to change and how to improve, but you never ever came down from the high horse to give some hints/ hand, or even working together on a better solution.
Again, I agree with all your other points, you were right in them.
