Money raised by the WordPress Foundation will be used to ensure free access to supported software projects, protect the WordPress trademark, and fund a variety of programs. These programs will be largely educational in nature, intended to increase understanding about WordPress, free software and open source development.
Some programs under consideration for funding include:
- Video recording of WordCamp presentations
- Live and/or video workshops on how to use and develop for WordPress
- School mentorship programs to encourage interest in WordPress/open source development
- Improving documentation about how to use and develop for WordPress
As more specific plans are made, details will be posted to this site.
