It's hard to believe I'm back here, but there's too many important conversations to have and too many things going on to miss out.

Planning to post about #WordPress, #php, and community.

Work continues on the mirror for #WP .org. We’ve created a Slack channel and a subreddit. Check out https://t.co/qMCcxWDWct to follow along. This will be my last update from this account; all others will come from @AspirePressOrg Please follow that account #Wordpress #wpdrama

@sereedmedia @AlexStandiford I’m building AspirePress, which is meant to be a sort of second iteration. Check out https://t.co/exNWAxLqQi and feel free to ask questions.

@ryancduff @sereedmedia Surprised I haven't been blocked, working on building a mirror of WP .org and all...

#ACF needs updates. We won’t block your access or keep you from releasing it.

Open invitation to @wpengine - be our launch partner for first-party plugins and federated distribution with AspirePress. We’ll provide you the APIs and keys to update your plugin through our CDN. @asmartbear #wp #wordpress #wpdrama

I wrote something updating the world on the WP .org "single-point-of-failure" repo replacement effort: https://t.co/ZQwV49PDf6 #wordpress #wp #wpengine

@ryancduff Considering they've banned WPE from updating their plugin in SVN, they're teeing up grounds to close it entirely.

@ryancduff @photomatt @asmartbear Taking the conservative/liberal tilt out of Elon for a min and focusing on results alone…

Matt seems to be attempting to imitate Musk. But the problem is, while Musk gets results, Matt is getting sued.

Results matter. And for Automattic investors, this is awful.

@DewaltJackson @photomatt I understand them saying “we think WPE is wrong on the law and we didn’t break any laws.” But claiming it’s entirely meritless when we watched it happen in real time! How stupid do they think we are?

@mishterkurth I get a TB free per month on Cloudfront. And all the majors offer PPA’s if you pass lots of traffic.

[Modernizing PHP @ModernizingPHP]

@automattic Um, did we read the same complaint last night? Cause those screen shots are awful damning.

[Modernizing PHP @ModernizingPHP]

@akshatc How are you pulling the whole repo down so that you truly have a mirror?

[Modernizing PHP @ModernizingPHP]

@akshatc Excited to hear more about your solution.

@_skris I’ve been working on this at https://t.co/exNWAxLqQi and https://t.co/9I9DttiWDi but I need help.

[Modernizing PHP @ModernizingPHP]

@alexsirota I’m in talks with Fastly now. And Cloudflare scares me after that tweet from their CEO that “it’s his site he can do what he wants”

[Modernizing PHP @ModernizingPHP]

@alexsirota Booked a time!

@jdevalk AspirePress has made good progress on a mirror for the community: https://t.co/exNWAxLqQi
