It's really easy to get support from the Wordpress community, because of its "open-source" nature.
The best place to start for support is the Wordpress Forums. We recommend the Wordpress forum to all of our customers that use Wordpress and require software specific help as there are thousands of users, with many whom have faced similar issues as you.
You can also learn abotu the Wordpress community teams including the leadership and development teams here: http://wordpress.org/about/
They also have their own blog (which uses Wordpress) which outlines what is going on with the software and Wordpress: http://wordpress.org/development/
