One of the people cited as being involved in the discussion at WCEU (a major WordPress conference) is Joost de Valk, the creator of Yoast (and currently interim CTO of Yoast). I would suspect if any plugin invests in making sure it's c

Just to note, Make/Core is a relatively open discussion site where contributors to WordPress can post proposals, and this does not necessarily indicate an official plan at this stage. It certainly might become one, but this is currentl

Depends on your local area and broadcaster (just like F1TV); here in the UK, Channel 4 has it either broadcast live on YouTube, or in their 4 On Demand app. (Or both.)

WordPress has hooks to allow pointing the uploads location to a different directory, which you can combine with PHP stream wrappers to have a virtual filesystem. (Source: I wrote the original WP/App Engine integration back when Google

“the twenty-sixth of April” would be the way I say today’s date and anecdotally is in common usage in both countries I’ve lived in (the UK and Australia, both using d/m/y). I’d say it’s about as frequent as “April the twenty-sixth

"had to" is a strong term; they called the development Skyneedle and all the branding is centered around playing it up. (Also, let's be honest, Pradella were kind of running out of names otherwise.) It is very reminiscent of

Aside from whether that’s happening here, there’s an argument to be made that an equivalent of common carrier laws make sense for the largest platforms. With the centralisation of attention onto those platforms, deplatforming effectively le

This is effectively true; as noted in my other comments, WordPress doesn’t have a CLA, so contributors retain rights to their contributions. The trademark, domains, and some other legal parts are owned by the WordPress Foundation. For examp
