Now, if Ace didn't want to be a big, then they, for the lack of a better phrase, got their wish. But if they did, they ruined their opportunity when they decided to discontinue the ace updater.

WowAce is still huge dude, It's by far one of the largest active developer communities. We just don't have to worry about the costs or having an excessive number of users on the site.
Another shift we made with Ace3 was to downplay it's usage. You probably have a lot more Ace addons than you think.
Sorry for de-railing thread again.
