And while I'm at it, may I say that trademarking the phrases: { “Future Proof.”, “Sleep Well at Night.” and “More Time for …” when replacing the ellipsis with an activity} is a purely draconian measure in my opinion. People use those phrases aalllll the time, how the heck can you trademark them?

In addition, for anyone who saw the move to create a commercial branch of MODX as a surprise, I would ask: "What do you think would happen when they sought and received an investment a few years ago?" This fact was never hidden from the community, and like any investor, the people who provided money to help grow MODX will at some point want the money back. I see MODX Cloud and therefore SiphonLabs as a direct result of it; higher visibility and goodwill towards a product on its own does not factor into any Return On Investment calculation I've seen.
