Jane on WordPress

Open Source Fantasy

I want John Lilly’s WordCamp SF presentation to marry WordPress and have cute little open source babies that are born knowing how to collaborate effectively, communicate and enable a combination of curated and distributed decisions, and bewitch users and contributing developers into never saying a snotty thing again because they are so happy with how pretty the babies are turning out to be.
