Mullenweg stated, 'To make this easy and hopefully give this project the push it needs to get off the ground, I'm deactivating the .org accounts. I strongly encourage anyone who wants to try different leadership models or align with WP Engine to join up with their new effort.' This reflects his belief that removing certain accounts could spur new initiatives within the WordPress community.
The conflict with WP Engine illustrates Mullenweg's perspective that they profit from the WordPress project without contributing fairly in return. He believes a fork could prompt necessary changes regarding trademark usage and contribution.
