If we, the RMs, see that these extensions are not yet ready, we will not hesitate to pull any of them. We will make such a decision before we go into the RC phase. Until then it would be only fair to not push the developers in question into such a defensive corner. They should spend their open source brain cycles on fixing bugs not in this thread.

The point is that I don't see any results of this thread. Or rather the results are quite indefinite.


What result are you expecting?
That they are removed immediately?
That all bugs are instantly fixed?
That the previous decisions of enabling by default of these extensions is revoked in light of bugs being found in the alpha phase of 5.3?

This would be unreasonable.
What is reasonable is that it has been acknowledged that several of the newly added and enabled by default extensions have issues. And the reassurance that if these bugs do not get resolved these extensions might not be enabled by default or not even bundled to begin with.

Nobody is saying "Tony do not mention issues in new extensions". But pointing to bugs in code that is part of alpha releases (or to make it even clearer non RC/stable releases) and saying this is enough to revert previous decisions is not fair to the developer (and the users waiting for these features).
