Boy are you good at misinterpreting what I write.
You are wrong, wrong, wrong. Pick any other platform you want, but at least pick it from ones that are designed for your user's requirements, as agreed on with the users.
I'm not interesting in having PG adopt my software or one of the several platforms I know how to use. I could as easily have done this with drupal or a number
of other CMS or I suppose wiki software. I happened to choose wordpress because it has the biggest add-on collection of software I don't have to write.
What causes you to make these incredible leaps to invalid conclusions, especially about other peoples' motivations?
If you want to know why I write something, just ask me and I'll tell you.

All your song and dance about user requirements first and foremost ... and what you *really* wanted to do from the start is use wordpress.
You hoped somebody else would say "wordpress", so it didn't quite look like you were crammming your personal choice down the users' throats, but nobody did. Too bad.
Now how is you cramming wordpress down the users' throats different from me cramming hg down the users' throats? Lets hear.
