Matt Mullenweg Addresses Controversies Surrounding Gutenberg at WordCamp Portland Q&A
Matt Mullenweg joined attendees at WordCamp Portland, OR, for a Q&A session last weekend and the recording is now available on WordPress.tv.
The first question came from a user who tried Gutenberg and turned it off because of a plugin conflict. She asked if users will have to use Gutenberg when 5.0 is released. Mullenweg said one of the reasons Gutenberg has been tested so early is to give plugin developers time to get their products compatible.
WordPress 5.0 is Not Ready
WordPress 5.0 can and should be a positive change to WordPress, but if it is released in late November as planned, it won’t be. There are simply too many bugs in the editor, and the experience is not polished enough. This is because the rate of development has prevented systematic quality assurance (QA) and user testing.
