#WordPress is discovering that having a #Benevolent #Dictator for #Life is not such a good idea and that a more community-driven model shold be probably the way to go🫂🧑🤝🧑👫👭👬
We (Javier Luis Cánovas Izquierdo and yours truly) have been advocating for a more #transparent and explicit #governance of #opensource projects.
In particular, we argue that each project should include a governance.md file with this information. So that, contributors (but also users) can have this info into account before deciding to invest their time in the project.
We also argue that this governance should be #democratic but this is a discussion up to each project.
More details of our proposal:

And when we reunite, we keep working on the best possible WordPress, together. And we will continue to demand better, to demand fair governance, fair safeguards, fair coexistence. None of the #wpdrama of the past months should have happened.
"... Maintaining that continuity and preventing arbitrary disruption stemming from a corporate dispute is in the public interest."

WordPress ACF Plugin Forked to ‘Secure Custom Fields’ Plugin ↴
https://wptavern.com/acf-plugin-forked-to-secure-custom-fields-plugin“the forking of the ACF plugin has sent shockwaves through the community, raising ethical questions about the decision”
The FUD never ends… Forking is great. It's a FOSS basic principle. But this is not exactly a fork, more like a takeover. It lacks… elegance.
