 > I would like to see it look at posts/user/comment, settings, and the
 customizer. Note "look at" — not trying to overwhelm, but it's worth at
 least studying everything.

 Cool.

 > You know as well as I do that Automattic has nothing to do with that.

 Whoa there!!!

 I don't actually ''know'' how anything get decided nor who is in charge of
 what; from the outside it's very opaque.

 I wasn't trying to make a political statement, just saying I'd be willing
 to work on relationships as soon as it was blessed. But since I didn't
 really know who has access to make.wordpress.org I assumed it was
 Automattic.

 Note: unlike some in the WordPress community I don't really care about the
 relationships between Automattic, WordPress Foundation, Audrey Capital,
 et. al.; I just see that it is what it is and I go about my business
 trying to be negatively affected by it the least. ''(When I have made a
 stink in the past it's been about technical decisions that seem trivial on
 core's end but make my life >10x harder.)''

 > There's a [http://make.wordpress.org/core/2013/07/28/potential-roadmap-
 for-taxonomy-meta-and-post-relationships/ roadmap in place] for terms,
 some of which I'd like to tackle in 3.9; object relationships won't come
 before that. None of this (including postmeta) are conducive to the
 feature plugins track as they are inherently architecture.

 So, does that mean you don't need ''(or want)'' outside help or
 involvement?
