 * Another person who’s logged in just to beg you never to release this. I installed
   it, had a look at it, and couldn’t make head nor tail of it. I spent some time,
   I clicked around everywhere, and still can’t see the most very basic of things
   I need to do when creating content. I’d love to provide more detailed feedback
   than that, but I can’t, as it basically turned off everything and in effect made
   the editor unusable.
 * It’s horrible, release it as an optional plugin if you want, but please never
   make this the default editor. If it does become the default, then I guess we’ll
   have to find a plugin that rolls things back to how they were, which then inevitably
   won’t be updated, meaning it creates security holes over time. Brilliant.

 * The [Classic Editor](https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-editor/) plugin has
   been released by the Gutenberg team to make it easy for people like yourself 
   to opt out from using Gutenberg for as long as you like.
 * You can read some info about long term support for the Classic Editor at [Concerns over Classic Editor Long-Term](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/concerns-over-classic-editor-long-term-2/).
