I Need Your Questions For Scott Reilly

By Jeffro on July 28, 2009

This week on WordPress Weekly, I have the distinct pleasure to interview an awesome WordPress plugin developer. His name is Scott Reilly who has authored over 50 different WordPress plugins that you can browse here. It’s not too often I get the chance to interview a plugin author on the show so I’m highly looking forward to this. You can bet that I’ll be bringing up the topic related to donations, business models, and whether WordPress has been a thankless community to him.

What I need from you are questions. You can either publish them here in the comments or visit this thread in the tavern forum.
