they did not pay the $250 to bypass the waiting period
I'd wondered if you'd have anything to say about this. That bit right there is new to me. I had no idea that they'd do such a thing, though I suppose they gotta get funding somehow.
I now kinda want to pay to have some cheesy distro listed. Maybe I should make my own?!? Nah, I don't have time for that and I sure as heck don't want to support such a thing.
