Submit a News Tip or Leak


Do you know of a possible story we should be investigating? If you’re privy to information that can help The Repository provide the real story behind what’s going on in the WordPress open source ecosystem, we’d love to hear from you. While there’s no 100% secure way to leak, here are some good options for getting in touch.

Use our contact form

This is for general stuff and when you don’t feel the need to hide your identity. It’s quick and easy, but also the least secure method of getting in touch. You’ll find our contact form here.

We recommend against using devices or emails controlled by your employer to send us messages. If your news tip or leak is sensitive or you fear reprisal, please get in touch using one of the methods listed below instead.

Send a direct message on Slack

You’ll also find us on Post Status Slack (rae). We discourage contact via Making WordPress Slack as messages there have been caught up in the discovery process as part of WP Engine’s legal action. We are also active in WPAustralia Slack (Rae Morey).

Encrypted messaging apps

Signal is an encrypted messaging app available on iOS and Android. Signal’s servers store your number but they don’t store a log of who you communicate with or who communicates with you. Our Signal username is rae.7376.
