We&#8217;ve been planning to focus on media features in 2.9 for some time, and unsurprisingly, it was media features that dominated the discussion.* A large percentage of the requests we get from users are for more/better media features, so we&#8217;ve decided to focus 2.9 on building an infrastructure for improved media handling that we can continue to build on in versions to come. In that vein, we need your input to determine which features to prioritize and build sooner rather than later.</p>\n<p>These are the features that we&#8217;re asking people to vote on (in alphabetical, not prioritized, order):</p>\n<p><strong>Additional Media Filters:</strong> In the uploader, you can currently upload an image from your hard drive, link to an image from a URL, or select an image from the Media Library. This proposed feature would add links in the Media Library pane that would allow you to filter images to those that had been used most recently, used most often, and/or marked as a favorite. These filters would be available on the Media Library screen as well.<br />\n<strong><br />\nBasic Image Editing:</strong> Enable cropping, resizing and 90-degree rotation of uploaded images.<br />\n<strong><br />\nBetter Media Settings: </strong>Enable the creation of more default media settings controlled in the Settings section, and allow settings to be overridden  during the individual media upload process as needed.</p>\n<p><strong>Bulk Media Import API: </strong>Develop an API to allow for bulk media importing by plugins or importers.<br />\n<strong><br />\nCustom Image Sizes:</strong> Instead of hardcoded thumbnail, medium, large, etc. image sizes, custom image sizes would allow you to configure the maximum dimensions for each of the sizes.</p>\n<p><strong>Easier Embeds:</strong> Make it easier to embed third-party content such as YouTube videos, etc. Similar to Viper&#8217;s Video Quicktags plugin.</p>\n<p><strong>Media Albums: </strong>Ability to create and edit photo albums that can stand alone (as opposed to galleries being tied only to a post), including photostream functionality.<br />\n<strong><br />\nMedia Metadata: </strong>Enable the use of categories and tags on media files.</p>\n<p><strong>Photostream:</strong> Create a Flickr-style photostream that simply displays images in a chronological stream (as opposed to grouping in galleries).</p>\n<p><strong>Post thumbnails:</strong> Choose an image to appear as a thumbnail with your post/article/excerpt.</p>\n<p><strong>Revised Media UI: </strong>Redesign the uploader UI to make uploading and editing media files a simpler, more user-friendly process.</p>\n<p>These descriptions are repeated in the beginning of the voting survey, so if you forget what something means you&#8217;ll be able to scroll up to remind yourself. Only the first question (pick your top choice) is mandatory. This survey isn&#8217;t very long. Question two lets you assign a general high/low priority to each of the 11 feature suggestions, while question 3 asks you to rank the 11 features in order of priority from 1-11. A text box or two allow you to make additional suggestions, and that&#8217;s it.

Usually the host administrators will add some firewall rules to permit the Akismet plugin to connect to akismet.com.  But recently we&#8217;ve discovered that some hosts have created <i>incomplete</i> firewall rules, with the result that <i>some Akismet connections succeed, but some fail</i>.  This caused Akismet to seem like it was working, when in fact only some spam was checked, and only some reports ever made it back to Akismet.com.</p>\n<p>The problem is caused by the host&#8217;s firewall rules &#8211; it&#8217;s not something that Akismet can fix.  We can detect the problem, however, which is exactly what the new revision does.</p>\n<p>The new feature adds a <b>Server Connectivity</b> section to the Akismet Configuration tab.  The new section will check for any problems connecting to any Akismet servers, including the partial firewall problem, and recommend a course of action if there is an issue.</p>\n<p>There&#8217;s more code in the new revision than we would typically add in an Akismet update, so testing and feedback are welcome.<br />\n<span id=\"more-247\"></span></p>\n<p>Some technical details for those who are interested:</p>\n<p>Akismet uses round-robin DNS and load balancers to distribute the work of checking comments for spam across multiple servers.  A DNS lookup of rest.akismet.com (the domain used for Akismet API calls) returns not one but several IP addresses, corresponding to the multiple servers.  When your blog uses Akismet to check a comment, it will (more or less) randomly choose an Akismet server IP to use.  Each time it checks a new comment, it might use a different Akismet server IP.</p>\n<p>If a web host blocks all connections to all Akismet server IPs, the Akismet plugin can easily detect the problem and report an error.  The plugin has always included a connectivity check as part of its configuration process, that will warn the user if Akismet servers are unreachable.</p>\n<p>If a web host allows connections to <i>some</i> Akismet server IPs, but blocks connections to the others, the connectivity check might succeed (if it happens to connect to one of the allowed IPs), while some subsequent connections will fail (when they try to connect to one of the blocked IPs).  Result: the plugin appears to be working fine, but in fact only some API calls are working.  Users often won&#8217;t notice anything wrong, because <i>some</i> spam is caught.</p>\n<p>The new revision expands the connectivity check to include all known Akismet servers.  It displays a status message or warning to the user if some servers are unreachable.  It also stores a list of server IPs and their status, with a 24 hour expiry.  That list of IPs is used when checking and reporting spam, to ensure that only servers that are known to be reachable are used.  The list will be refreshed after 24 hours so as to adapt to any changes in availability &#8211; such as when a web host changes their firewall and blocks or unblocks an Akismet server.  (Which is something that a few hosts have been known to do without warning, unfortunately).</p>\n<p>NB: feedback about this new revision is welcome here, but please don&#8217;t post general Akismet support requests in comments.

The &#8220;classic&#8221; and &#8220;default&#8221; themes included in that release candidate comprise various PHP and CSS files along with an optional directory of images.

I have, however, been working in the Open Source consulting and development space for a number of years and think this is an important issue for all Open Source consultants to consider. Please consult your own lawyer, don&#8217;t blame me, etc.</p>\n<p>At <a href=\"http://crowdfavorite.com\">Crowd Favorite</a> we work primarily with <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/\" rel=\"external\">WordPress</a>, but also with many other Open Source projects. We are often working with larger companies that have standard Master Services Agreements (MSAs) or Professional Services Agreements (PSAs). These agreement templates are designed so that these companies have a known legal foundation to work from, and include a variety of requirements and terms that apply to the consultants working for them and governing the Deliverables created by those consultants. These agreements often have standard language in them that have some interesting side-effects when you are working with Open Source.</p>\n<p>It&#8217;s common for services agreements to have these components:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>Deliverable</li>\n<li>Warranty</li>\n<li>Indemnification</li>\n</ol>\n<p>with a set of terms around each. The standard terms in these agreements likely contain language that may be somewhat problematic when applied to projects built on Open Source.</p>\n<h3>Deliverable</h3>\n<p>Let&#8217;s look at the Deliverable first. In a standard web site build the deliverable might be loosely defined in this manner:</p>\n<blockquote><p>A custom web site powered by WordPress, using existing and custom created plugins and themes to achieve custom functionality. Consultant will deliver the entire package along with documentation and installation instructions, and will assist with the initial installation and configuration of the site.</p></blockquote>\n<p>The Deliverable described above has five potential parts: WordPress, existing plugin(s), custom plugin(s), existing theme(s), custom theme(s). The Deliverable is generally what the Warranty and Indemnification clause are tied to, so the way it&#8217;s defined is important.</p>\n<p>Of these five parts, you will probably only have created the custom plugins and custom themes from scratch. The others will be created and licensed by other companies and/or individuals. You do <em>not</em> want to take on full responsibility for these parts of the deliverable in the Warranty and Indemnification clauses.</p>\n<h3>Warranty</h3>\n<p>The Warranty part of the contract generally has two parts: terms that cover how bugs will be fixed and for how long; and terms that declare that all of the intellectual property (IP) in the Deliverable is free and clear of infringement.</p>\n<p>I&#8217;m assuming that you don&#8217;t want to be on the hook for every bug that might exist in WordPress (or whatever other Open Source package you are working with), so you need to make sure you get the language here adjusted so that it reflects this.

Typically, the Indemnification clause does make you responsible in these cases and most consultants I know don&#8217;t have the resources to do patent searches on every feature that is requested by their clients. If you write code that contains infringing IP and your client is sued, you would be on the hook to pay for any and all or your client&#8217;s damages, including legal fees. The knowledge qualifier we use handles this situation as well, and you can also handle it with a specific carve-out if needed.</p>\n<p>Hopefully this information will be useful to some of you the next time you&#8217;re reviewing a contract for a project.

I have, however, been working in the Open Source consulting and development space for a number of years and think this is an important issue for all Open Source consultants to consider. Please consult your own lawyer, don&#8217;t blame me, etc.</p>\n<p>At <a href=\"http://crowdfavorite.com\">Crowd Favorite</a> we work primarily with <a href=\"http://wordpress.org/\" rel=\"external\">WordPress</a>, but also with many other Open Source projects. We are often working with larger companies that have standard Master Services Agreements (MSAs) or Professional Services Agreements (PSAs). These agreement templates are designed so that these companies have a known legal foundation to work from, and include a variety of requirements and terms that apply to the consultants working for them and governing the Deliverables created by those consultants. These agreements often have standard language in them that have some interesting side-effects when you are working with Open Source.</p>\n<p>It&#8217;s common for services agreements to have these components:</p>\n<ol>\n<li>Deliverable</li>\n<li>Warranty</li>\n<li>Indemnification</li>\n</ol>\n<p>with a set of terms around each. The standard terms in these agreements likely contain language that may be somewhat problematic when applied to projects built on Open Source.</p>\n<h3>Deliverable</h3>\n<p>Let&#8217;s look at the Deliverable first. In a standard web site build the deliverable might be loosely defined in this manner:</p>\n<blockquote><p>A custom web site powered by WordPress, using existing and custom created plugins and themes to achieve custom functionality. Consultant will deliver the entire package along with documentation and installation instructions, and will assist with the initial installation and configuration of the site.</p></blockquote>\n<p>The Deliverable described above has five potential parts: WordPress, existing plugin(s), custom plugin(s), existing theme(s), custom theme(s). The Deliverable is generally what the Warranty and Indemnification clause are tied to, so the way it&#8217;s defined is important.</p>\n<p>Of these five parts, you will probably only have created the custom plugins and custom themes from scratch. The others will be created and licensed by other companies and/or individuals. You do <em>not</em> want to take on full responsibility for these parts of the deliverable in the Warranty and Indemnification clauses.</p>\n<h3>Warranty</h3>\n<p>The Warranty part of the contract generally has two parts: terms that cover how bugs will be fixed and for how long; and terms that declare that all of the intellectual property (IP) in the Deliverable is free and clear of infringement.</p>\n<p>I&#8217;m assuming that you don&#8217;t want to be on the hook for every bug that might exist in WordPress (or whatever other Open Source package you are working with), so you need to make sure you get the language here adjusted so that it reflects this. You&#8217;ll probably end up in some middle ground on this, as your client will just want the solution you&#8217;re building for them to work, but you need to limit what you are willing to take on.</p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the second part of the Warranty that is particularly dangerous. While you may take on some responsibility for fixing bugs in the overall deliverable, you definitely don&#8217;t want to take on responsibility for all of the IP in any Open Source project. If you do this, and it turns out someone in another country committed code that wasn&#8217;t legal for them to commit, you&#8217;ve just taken on responsibility for that.</p>\n<p>We typically resolve this with a &#8220;to our knowledge&#8221; clause, which covers the client for code we create, but absolves us of responsibility from other Open Source code (assuming we are using code that was properly licensed, etc.). It also covers us in the event we are asked to build something that infringes on an existing patent.</p>\n<p>If you breach one or more of the Warranties, then the Indemnification clause comes into play.</p>\n<h3>Indemnification</h3>\n<p>Indemnification ties in with the same issues discussed in the Warranty section.

One sentence summary: PHP in WordPress themes must be GPL, artwork and CSS may be but are not required.</p>\n<blockquote><p>Matt,</p>\n<p>You asked the Software Freedom Law Center to clarify the status of themes as derivative works of WordPress, a content management software package written in PHP and licensed under version 2 of the GNU General Public License.</p>\n<p>We examined release candidate 1 of WordPress 2.8, which you provided to us at http://wordpress.org/wordpress-2.8-RC1.tar.gz.  The &#8220;classic&#8221; and &#8220;default&#8221; themes included in that release candidate comprise various PHP and CSS files along with an optional directory of images.  The PHP files contain a mix of HTML markup and PHP calls to<br />\nWordPress functions.  There is some programmatic logic in the PHP code, including loops and conditionals.</p>\n<p>When WordPress is started, it executes various routines that prepare information for use by themes.  In normal use, control is then transferred via PHP&#8217;s include() function to HTML and PHP templates found in theme package files.  The PHP code in those template files relies on the earlier-prepared information to fill the templates for serving to the client.</p>\n<p>On the basis of that version of WordPress, and considering those themes as if they had been added to WordPress by a third party, it is our opinion that the themes presented, and any that are substantially similar, contain elements that are derivative works of the WordPress software as well as elements that are potentially separate works. Specifically, the CSS files and material contained in the images directory of the &#8220;default&#8221; theme are works separate from the WordPress code.  On the other hand, the PHP and HTML code that is intermingled with and operated on by PHP the code derives from the WordPress code.</p>\n<p>In the WordPress themes, CSS files and images exist purely as data to be served by a web server.  WordPress itself ignores these files[1]. The CSS and image files are simply read by the server as data and delivered verbatim to the user, avoiding the WordPress instance altogether.  The CSS and images could easily be used with a range of HTML documents and read and displayed by a variety of software having no relation to WordPress.  As such, these files are separate works from the WordPress code itself.</p>\n<p>The PHP elements, taken together, are clearly derivative of WordPress code.  The template is loaded via the include() function.  Its contents are combined with the WordPress code in memory to be processed by PHP along with (and completely indistinguishable from) the rest of WordPress.  The PHP code consists largely of calls to WordPress functions and sparse, minimal logic to control which WordPress functions are accessed and how many times they will be called.  They are derivative of WordPress because every part of them is determined by the content of the WordPress functions they call.  As works of authorship, they are designed only to be combined with WordPress into a larger work.</p>\n<p>HTML elements are intermingled with PHP in the two themes presented. These snippets of HTML interspersed with PHP throughout the theme PHP files together form a work whose form is highly dependent on the PHP and thus derivative of it.</p>\n<p>In conclusion, the WordPress themes supplied contain elements that are derivative of WordPress&#8217;s copyrighted code.  These themes, being collections of distinct works (images, CSS files, PHP files), need not be GPL-licensed as a whole.  Rather, the PHP files are subject to the requirements of the GPL while the images and CSS are not.  Third-party developers of such themes may apply restrictive copyrights to these elements if they wish.</p>\n<p>Finally, we note that it might be possible to design a valid WordPress theme that avoids the factors that subject it to WordPress&#8217;s copyright, but such a theme would have to forgo almost all the WordPress functionality that makes the software useful.</p>\n<p>Sincerely,<br />\nJames Vasile<br />\nSoftware Freedom Law Center</p>\n<p>[1] There is one exception.

We&#8217;ve changed the way WordPress does style and scripting.</p>\n<p>The core and plugin updaters in previous versions of WordPress have been such a success we decided to bring the same to themes.

Also there is now contextual documentation for the functions in the file you&#8217;re editing linked right below the editor.</p>\n<p>If you were ever frustrated with widgets before, this release should be your savior. <strong>We&#8217;ve completely redesigned the widgets interface</strong> (which we didn&#8217;t have time to in 2.7) to allow you to do things like edit widgets on the fly, have multiple copies of the same widget, drag and drop widgets between sidebars, and save inactive widgets so you don&#8217;t lose all their settings. Developers now have access to a <a href=\"http://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Widgets_Api\">much cleaner and robust API</a> for creating widgets as well.</p>\n<p>Finally you should explore the <strong>new Screen Options on every page</strong>. It&#8217;s the tab in the top right. Now, for example, if you have a wide monitor you could set up your dashboard to have four columns of widgets instead of the two it has by default.
