    I'm sure they're upset about this security exploit, but did they have to resort to using racist terms??? And besides, how do they know that a white guy did this??:confused:

    i know they get some by

    - affiliate to hosting
    - Amazon books
    - Wordpress.com (users , adsense)

    Maybe they are planning on building a big community to sell it for million or billions later ... like youtube .

    I am the lucky because i dont have to upgrade again because when i plan to do upgrade then 2.1.2 was released. I was afraid to upgrade but nothing happen, it take just 10 minutes to upgrade from 1.5 to 2.1.2

    Wordpress is an open source software package, which means anyone can contribute to the building of it, ie. it's volunteer run so there's no need for them to have other revenue streams.
