[meltdownMatt]

Of course I’m an involved party: every Wordpress developer and user is an involved party.

Matt has (in Slack) advised everybody to obtain their own legal council before they sign in to Wordpress’s support forums/plugin index/issue tracker/community resources again. (Many long-time contributors who cannot afford to hire a lawyer to deal with Matt’s whims have unfortunately decided this means they can no longer contribute.) Matt’s explicit stated (in Slack) intent is to require everybody to be involved in the conflict and choose sides. I’m sure not on Matt’s side, so I guess that means I’m on WP Engine’s, despite their mediocre service and contributions.

But no, I won’t use my own account. Matt seems rather vindictive and I wouldn’t want to risk my employer being subject to that.
