Developing the WordPress Heroes of the world by sharing the accumulated wisdom of the community. There are a large number of WordPress developers in the world that feel excluded from the Western WordPress community for a variety of reasons, including culture, language, location, time zone, and personal challenges. We’re finding people around the world who have overcome these challenges and asking them to present some ideas to those people via web video. The videos will be recorded, transcribed, and translated into as many languages as we can afford. Assuming our first round of presentations is successful and well received, we’ll make more, expanding our topics, but always reaching out to those on the periphery of the community. While we do intend to create a platform that will support our endeavors, we will always tie our activities back into the existing WordPress community. Our goal is to enrich the WordPress community and expand it’s accessibility, not to supplant or compete with the existing community. We believe it is from the existing WordPress community that we all get our strength and we believe this community can serve the needs of people currently on the periphery. Our speakers will help us do that, regardless of their gender, race, color, creed, or nationality. We are passionate about this idea. We know we can make it work! We don’t know if the WordPress community is ready to break down these barriers so we can share our community with people who come from different cultures and who speak in different languages. If you are ready to open up the WordPress community to those on the periphery, please make a contribution and show your support for HeroPress. https://kickstarter/projects/heropress/heropress-developing-the-wordpress-heroes-of-the-w
