I get your point.  However, I think what I did is clearly chaotic
good.  Chaotic neutral would be releasing a new version of a software
package that contains both security fixes and new features.  Chaotic
evil would be releasing a new version of a software package that
claims to contain both security fixes and new features, but in fact
contains changes that make security worse, and all of the new features
are either broken or break old features. :-)

Have a good week.  Regards,
