Ling Wang is something different, that’s for sure, but I really appreciate his perspective in terms of online publishing. With his latest release of version 0.0.2 of Letterpress, which introduces Tags, ASCIIMathML support, and a few others, I’m beginning to see even with more clarity what his intent and implementation is all about. No, this isn’t another WordPress-powered implementation but rather something entirely different.

Jerry Bates (better known as JerrySarcastic) referenced this news via the events.make: This has been a busy week for moderators at WordPress.tv, […]

Jen Mylo shared a sneak peek of the new Learn site that’ll be the homebase for the handbooks that are being created, downloadable training material, and even educational events that’ll be hosted and available for users.
