The last year has been a rocky one for the WordPress community. Matt Mullenweg-WordPress co-founder and
CEO of WordPress hosting company Automattic-started a messy public spat with
WP Engine in September and
has proceeded to use his control of the project's WordPress.org
infrastructure as weapons against the company, with the community
caught in the crossfire. It is not surprising, then, that on
June 6 a group of WordPress community participants announced the
Federated
and Independent Repositories Package Manager (FAIR.pm) project. It
is designed to be a decentralized alternative to WordPress.org with a
goal of building "public digital infrastructure that is both
resilient and fair".
