E123: FAIR 1.0 Released, MCP Coming in WooCommerce

This week’s episode dives into the release of FAIR 1.0, marking a major milestone in decentralized WordPress package management by enabling installs from WordPress.org, independent sources, and mirrors. We also cover Gutenberg 21.7’s new features, WordPress VIP’s GovRAMP and TX-RAMP certifications, and BuddyPress security updates. On the business front, Newfold Digital sells Markmonitor, Pagely partners with WP Event Manager, and Fueled confirms workforce reductions, while rtCamp opens 100 new roles.

Community discussions span WooCommerce’s MCP module, FlyingPress 5.2 with real-user Core Web Vitals tracking, Shopify’s new WordPress plugin, and Automattic’s transparency report. Envato shifts focus away from extensions to AI, Michael Willman’s motion against Automattic raises legal questions, and Patchstack earns recognition among Estonian startups.

We also spotlight fresh projects and tools: from Throwable Block and Ollie Menu Designer to WooCommerce Product Tables, Jotform’s AI Chatbot, Amender’s universal content editor, and Cloudflare’s new Email Service and Vibe SDK.
