Is this really the case? Maybe I'm missing something, but yhe WordPress codebase is still available, what is not is the one repository for convenient one shot downloads. You could create an equivalent repo off of one of the existing mirrors or put it together yourself off of the codebase.
So maybe someone will fork the repository? But hosting is expensive, especially if you're going to get hit by something at the scale of WPEngine.

- bigiain 2y ago> You could create an equivalent repo off of one of the existing mirrors Can you though? And if so, for how much longer? Matt is already not letting developers log into wordpress.org without disclaiming any relationship with WPEngine. He is 100% going to demand the same from people mirroring that repo as soon as he thinks of it. > But hosting is expensive, especially if you're going to get hit by something at the scale of WPEngine. CloudFlare offered to do that for free. Matt said "Fuck you! I'm destroying WordPress instead, for the communiteeeeeeee!"
