Diane I think it’s long past time some type of Steering Committee was structured around .org. The statement made by Mr. Wood is frustrating, because I’m not sure why these are his decisions to make. In practice, I understand they fall to the person doing the work and the legacy of our Benevolent Dictator, but given the size of the community and the impact of these decisions, surely it’s time for a new model. The fact that so many businesses have been able to monetize WordPress, including Automattic, play a huge rule in it’s success and popularity, and it’s past time to stop the freemium/money bad mentality.
