Hi <<First Name>>—

Since the beginning of Post Status, the Business of WordPress community, two sponsors have been unwavering in support of you — Pagely and Gravity Forms. And I'm excited/grateful to share they are returning for yet another year. 

It’s companies and more so leaders like them that show their support for the business ecosystem of WP by continuing to keep this platform of connection and conversation going here.

WP Could Help Champion The Fediverse 

As Twitter has been a huge topic of conversation, and mentions of Mastodon in my world have risen sharply, someone mentioned I needed to talk with Matthias Pfefferle about the ActivityPub plugin for WordPress and the Fediverse. (Full interview for Draft podcast soon.)

"With ActivityPub your blog becomes part of a federated social network. This means you can share and talk to everyone using the ActivityPub protocol, including users of Friendica, Pleroma and Mastodon."

The Fediverse and ActivityPub for WP excite me because they highlight key values that resonate with all of us in WP: decentralization, open source and growth of the Open Web.

And I think it's an excellent opportunity for WP to contribute and even lead. 

Chris Wiegman shared his thoughts on Why WP Should Embrace The Fediverse. And David Bisset talked of compiling a list of Post Status members on Mastodon.

The WP Community Collective

The WP Community Collective aims to address some of these ongoing challenges by creating community-funded Fellowships to financially support individual contributions to the WordPress project and community.

“We hope that the WP Community Collective can help bridge the gap between the passion people feel for WordPress, and the very real and practical limits of volunteer contribution,” said founding co-director Sé Reed.  

The WPCC’s first initiative is the WPCC Accessibility Fellowship. They are currently in discussion with an existing unsponsored core contributor to hold the inaugural role of Accessibility Fellow, and have launched the fundraising efforts to fund this Fellowship.
