Having witnessed feuds between Founder and CEO before they're never a pretty sight, so thats why the future of Sails.js has been very disconcerting.

Hopefully relationships can be amended amicably and if Sails.js is truly dead in the water then hopefully Trails.js will pick up where it left off and on better footing I hope, but it will take some time and also some proper PR might of been helpful to the many Sails.js users as well as it didn't need to reach this point, also on that PR note should we expect that they can easily port over their Sails.js projects over to Trails.js?

I was hoping to re-visit Sails.js for a project but considering all that's been happening I'm not sure I should just go with something else like Python+Flask and let Trails.js mature a bit more.




I'm sorry that this debacle has negatively impacted your opinion of the framework. Other open-source maintainers had warned me in the past that this kind of thing is par for the course as any project grows, but it doesn't make it any easier to deal with when it happens to you. In the mean time, it has certainly made my family's holidays unpleasant, and disrupted the lives of the rest of our team.

I posted a few important clarifications here in the original issue: https://github.com/balderdashy/sails/issues/3429#issuecommen...
