I'd encourage everyone reading this to look at the conduct and manner at which Antoine has presented himself over the last year and to weigh it into his current accusations against LDK and LDK members. There's a lot that is already public if you know where to look. To me, this is more a reflection on his spontaneous actions and demands than anything about the LDK team. I have seen him voluntarily remove himself multiple times from the various LDK contributors/security lists (and even lightning itself) throughout the year. This is not stable behavior.
I had respect, but this is over the top and it's burning remaining bridges for absolutely no gain but to cause even more drama. Nobody has time nor wants to deal with this. I have seen nothing but patient and considerate behavior from the LDK team throughout the year.
I didn't want to mention anything but LDK is the last group that should be called out for improper behavior here. I may not know everything, but I've seen nearly every public mailing list email, discord message, and LDK issue opened or commented on, and this is my opinion based on those. People should be aware of that and consider more than just this side of the story.
