More than anyone else I know, Andrew Nacin lives and breathes WordPress. He’s been a WordPress core contributor for the past few years and is addicted to reading the WordPress core mailing lists and WordPress trac.
As a core developer and committer, Nacin knows all the ins and outs of how WordPress is made. In his session “How WordPress(.org) is made,” Nacin will be educating us on how WordPress core decisions are made and give a primer on how you can give back to WordPress.
