Obrero). Matt Mullenweg will also attend the WordCamp here in Davao aside from the WordCamp event which be held at College of St. Benilde at Taft Avenue, Manila. My intention on why I wanna join this event i because I wanna learn more about Wordpress specially on the developer site of it.
To Quote of the Organizers:
