I enjoyed this episode. The one thing that really stood out to me was the lack of support that Scott was getting for the API. I could not help but wonder of his self-professed shyness and discomfort in group may have had something to do with that. After all, getting folks to pay attention involves a little bit if salesmanship.

Sometimes schmoozing and getting folks talking is as important as chasing around every code integration point.

Also, given the fact the WP is pushing Gutenberg, a feature no one was asking for over many other that people are dying for (I'm looking at you Media Library), maybe the WP leadership's instincts aren't that great, Squarespace and Wiz nothwithstanding.
