LISTEN TO THE SHOW:
Lloyd Budd is not a Core Developer.
Lloyd Budd is not a core developer, he works at Automattic yes, but does not have commit access (that is on record) to the WordPress repository.
I look forward to listening to the podcast!
Ouch, I goofed up on that
Ouch, I goofed up on that one. I made the correction in the post but the error shall live in infamy within the podcast :(
I think it is okay
Well, I get him confused with Peter Westwood (who is a core developer) with Lloyd Budd all of the time. Lloyd does more bug tracking, testing, and support than programming it seems from discussions with him. I think he knows PHP, but just doesn't want to tell anyone that he is a code ninja. Do code ninjas retire?
Took me a while to figure out Lloyd isn't a core developer also. Just thought it was funny, "And that was Lloyd Budd who is a core developer..." I'm thinking, "Hmm, I wonder if he corrected you in the chat or didn't hear that part when the 'You are now muted' came on." I'll be there next time to correct you live, in the chat, I'm not going to be calling in.
