加州法院判决 WordPress 停止屏蔽 WP Engine;以及各种后续。
(下文提到的 Matt (Mullenweg) 是 WordPress 联合创始人及 Automattic 创始人。Automattic 是 WordPress.com 的运营者。)
Anderegg 在文章中提到:
* 法院判决 WordPress 停止屏蔽 WP Engine 及要求贡献者声明与 WP Engine 无关等。
* 2024 圣诞前,Matt 首次发文称 WordPress.org 团队将休假,并提到其「被法律强迫向 WP Engine 提供免费服务」。
* Automattic 在 1/9 的文章中称将缩减公司人员对开源项目 WordPress 的贡献支持到每周 45 小时;这个数字之前是每周约 4000 小时。
* WordPress 可持续性团队 (Sustainability Team) 中的一位核心成员宣布离开,呼吁领导层面上的改变;后 Matt 回复称「今天知道了这个团队的存在」,并 archive 此团队的 Slack 频道。

An update about #WordPress :
If you have a WP blog, people can follow your blog account and interact with your blog posts from Mastodon etc. More info at https://fedi.tips/wordpress-turning-your-blog-into-a-fediverse-server
The latest version of WP's Fediverse support introduces migration of Mastodon posts onto WordPress blogs as WP posts. (See thread at https://mastodon.social/@pfefferle/114263501158396609)
BUT unfortunately WP's largest developer's CEO has been behaving, um... unusually 😞 It's still unclear how this will resolve, it may be that a fork takes over.
WTF is this ? Has someone any explanation.
> As I [Matt Mullenweg] said, we’re dropping all the human blocks. Community guidelines, directory guidelines, and such will need to be followed going forward, but whatever blocks were in place before are now cleared. It may take a few days, but any pre-existing blocks are considered bugs to be fixed.
