I like many if not most of DHH's takes, just think Matt Mullenweg has some points. WP Engine are really leaning on community/Automattic resources. Listening back I disagree with Matt in that he should be able to dictate exactly 8% of another company's income though. https://youtu.be/H6F0PgMcKWM
Matt does have good points. I don't disagree. Matt can't under the current legal framework dictate what is "fair".
Honestly, both sides look bad to me. WP Engine should be supporting Wordpress if for no other reason than it is in their interest. I think Matt has a point about WP Engine missing this. I just think the way Matt went about this is really poorly thought out.
