Matt Mullenweg: ‘WordPress.org just belongs to me’
During an interview with The Verge, WordPress cofounder Matt Mullenweg said WordPress.org “belongs to me” and addressed the dispute with WP Engine.

Listen to him:
It doesn't belong to the community of contributors.
It doesn't belong to the community of committed users - many of whom modify the code in some way to fit their needs, even if it's just a template.
It belongs to Matt. It was *never* yours, and he never intended for you to use it without his permission.
Time to switch. Or build your own.

I suspect a lot of people would be happier with ClassicPress.
ClassicPress | Stable. Lightweight. Instantly Familiar.
ClassicPress is a community-led open source content management system. A fork of WordPress 4.9, it retains the WordPress classic editor as the default option.
