Mexico, Spain: WordPress.es and Ferca

Written byDavid Sasaki
Posted 21 April 2006 23:54 GMT

As they occasionally do, a web2.0 war of words has broken out. When Eduardo Arcos typed in the domain wordpress.es he was redirected (ES) to the weblog of the Ferca Network (ES), a Spanish web company run by David Carrero. Walter of HTML Life defends David (ES) saying that he has good intentions, but Arcos follows up saying the best gesture would be offer the domain to the open source WordPress community (ES) instead of using it for a proprietary company.
