This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I'd laugh my ass off if WP Engine would lead a hard fork called WP Core. If any WP Engine folks read this, feel free to use the name, I won't sue, I promise.
That's a much better name than something I was thinking.
I just made the assumption they'd do the standard open source thing and call it Libre-something.
I'd pay actual money to see the meltdown Matt would have if it was forked and called WP Core.
