I\u2019ve watched Matt Mullenweg\u2019s keynotes at WordCamp US Portland (where he called out WP Engine) and WordCamp Tokyo (last week). I\u2019ve posted briefly a few times about how Matt\u2019s actions have hurt the community, even if he has a defensible position in trademark law.</p>\n<p>Now there\u2019s <a href=\"https://www.inc.com/dfreedman/matt-mullenweg-wordpress-wp-engine/90994969\">this article in Inc magazine</a>. Matt, writer David Freedman suggests, just might be a mad king, a benevolent dictator for life taking WordPress in the wrong direction:</p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Mullenweg\u2019s war on WP Engine has also cast a shadow over the entire world of open-source software\u2014software that, like WordPress, can be freely downloaded and modified. Open-source software of various types is widely used throughout the world, precisely because it is seen as being free from the risk of proprietary abuse. But the WordPress debacle has demonstrated all too sharply that this belief may have been misplaced.</p>\n<p>Most of all, it has raised questions about Mullenweg himself.</p>\n</blockquote>\n<p>Matt responded <a href=\"https://ma.tt/\">on his own blog in detail</a>, including this bit about taking the long view:</p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>It\u2019s funny to talk about the last big controversy in WordPress world being in 2010, I think it actually speaks to our stability. Since 2010, when \u201csome eventually even left WordPress\u201d, the platform has grown market share from under 10% to 43%.
