[wp-pro] wp-pro Digest, Vol 60, Issue 12

Wed Jun 16 06:05:44 UTC 2010

How are we going to decide who's a pro? What level of knowledge makes one a
pro? For example, although I've been working with WordPress for over three
years, I'm always learning new things and there are definitely people out
there who know more than me.

What I'm saying is there are always going to be different levels of
providers and I think that they all have the right to their place in the
marketplace.
