In reply to Publius.

Because it is good to see diversity in the WordPress community.

I am Croatian and Peruvian. Croatians are South Slavic. While Russians are East Slavic. It is good to see more Slavic people involved in the community. The third Slavic group is West Slavic by the way, Poland, Czechia and Slovakia.

Nothing against Americans and western Europe but I would like to see some of my own people in the community.

The Peruvian side, I have not seen a Latino plugin author. But with so many I could of mixed it.

I am going to be honest, when selecting a plugin let's say SEO, if I have 5 choices and they are all good and I see a Slavic name, that will be the final choice.
