We don't know if you're ready to see our definition of 'gatekeeping.'
I'll say this louder for those in the back: #WordPress "5 for the Future" **cannot** be reformed or rescued without tearing up its foundation: it exists for the wrong reasons. Stop trying to fix it--tear it down and re-evaluate completely. #wpdrama
Today at #OSSummit @jdevalk and I with @fair_pm announced our open call to @linuxfoundation members to join a new directed fund to ensure a true #OpenSource #CMS ecosystem for generations to come! Get in touch to Join!

Proud to be involved with the team working on this! therepository.email/aspirepress-th…

If you've been seeing posts or conversations about FAIR Package Manager and are curious about what it is, why it's important, and why I'm involved, I wrote up some thoughts. #FAIRPM #WordPress carriedils.com/wordpress-fair/

New Post: Aspiring to FAIR Package Management aspirepress.org/aspiring-to-fa…
Big news for the #WordPress ecosystem! I've just published my thoughts on FAIR, our new Federated & Independent Repositories. We're building a more resilient, secure, & transparent future. It's real, it's running, and it's NOT a fork! Read the story behind FAIR:…
AspirePress is announcing availability of its distributed WordPress repository architecture. aspirepress.org/everest-1-0-is… - this work formed the starting point for FAIR package management. linuxfoundation.org/press/linux-fo… fastcompany.com/91347003/wordp…
We're delighted to launch the FAIR Package Manager with the Linux Foundation - read our announcement and come collaborate with us! #FAIRPM linuxfoundation.org/press/linux-fo…
And thus begins the next chapter of a FAIRer, safer, better WordPress. fastcompany.com/91347003/wordp…
Over @AspirePressOrg we've been in beta testing for a week now, and today wordpress.org seems to have had a pretty major outage (restored now). Just one more reminder why we *must* have a more robust software distribution system. Join us! github.com/aspirepress/as…
In case anyone needed *yet another* reason to avoid JetPack.
