WordPress Foundation gets the trademark
Matt Mullenweg has announced that the
ownership of the WordPress trademark has been transferred to the WordPress Foundation.
"Automattic might not always be under my influence, so from the
beginning I envisioned a structure where for-profit, non-profit, and
not-just-for-profit could coexist and balance each other out. It's
important for me to know that WordPress will be protected and that the
brand will continue to be a beacon of open source freedom regardless of
whether any company is as benevolent as Automattic has been thus
far.
