  1. Clearly No Adult In Charge Of WordPress

    WP Engine, who is in a prolonged legal battled with WordPress.org and Automattic over trademark and other legal matters bought a plug-in today. Congrats to them.

    But then in response to this the WordPress.org X/Twitter account called WPE a parasite.

    This was obviously Matt Mullenweg misusing his control over the non-profit/open source WordPress project to throw arrows and just be a total clown.

    I’m not going to mince words here. The leadership (ahem Matt Mullenweg) is not right in the head. And he’s taking the WordPress project down with him. Which is a real shame, because the WordPress community on the whole is fantastic. But to outsiders they just see Matt acting erratic and, well, small.

    Clearly there are no adults in the decision room at WP HQ. Where is Mary Hubbard the Executive Director of the WordPress project in all this? You know where? No where!

    Something needs to be done. But nothing probably will.

    This is just depressing. Full stop.

  19. In response to Matt Mullenweg’s “WordCamp Canada Talk”

    Questions in response to Matt's townhall at WCEH: What role do you see WordPress, either in core or through plugins, playing to help people reclaim their online identity and make ‘publish once, syndicate everywhere’ a mainstream reality? How can WordPress and the open web help rebuild that trust?

  20. The bad behavior of #mattMullenweg and #automattic knows no boundaries...

    It's absurd they're trying to intimidate someone for using a generic word similar to their trademarked name.

    I love the answer of #automaticCSS to their bulls*it:

    "...Congratulations on owning the domain name for a generic term. Let me know when that fact becomes relevant."
