I just want to make a correction, there was no charging for beta access to Tukui. That was a misunderstanding on the nature of his website and specifically, what premium means to that community.

Before the issue was resolved he specifically stated one of the benefits of premium membership was access to beta and ptr versions of his UI. You can spin it all you want but that was against the rules. That issue was changed and everything was fine after that.

Ahh, didn't see the continuation on the bottom of his next post. There was no spin, and shame on you for assuming I was spinning.

Looks like it was a misunderstanding on both parts as to what constituted the addon, did test versions count? Showing code changes is okay, but not the changes implemented int to the source? Sounds like there was a bit of a mea culpa that Blizz was unclear in their policy and Tukz also compromised by changing things around. Doesn't sound like he was wrong, nor was Blizzard right, both were just confused.
