Maybe it is just me but I find this headline inscrutable. I have no idea what is meant by kerfuffle or brouhaha. More common vernacular might be better. Does it mean "a minor argument became a foundation threatening problem"? Does it mean "an interpersonal conflict impacted the whole org?" I don't know... And probably do not care at this point.

The title came from a comment from one of the maintainers of the WiX Toolset. I called the initial missteps a "maintainer kerfuffle" and he responded, "As long as it doesn't turn into a brouhaha".

Now that I think about it, I didn't write the blog post for the uninitiated. If you didn't understand what was going on, that was fine, it was content for you.

I don't know how I ended up here on Hacker News. :)

Once again, someone else is far more pithy than I. +1
