Project Checks: Contributions

The team is now down to 657 open issues, with 28 issues closed in the past week.

Documenting WordPress 7.0 release

@estelaris proposed changes to the WordPress release day workflows, including reversing the order of the WordPress Versions page to show the latest version first, removing the Roadmap page from the team’s responsibilities, and updating the History and “Learn about WordPress origins and version history” pages. The team discussed the challenges and potential solutions, including exploring automation and using Contributor Days for manual updates.

Open Floor

Reviewing the Documentation Review Process

@supernovia asked the team to review the documentation review process and @estelaris and @milana_cap plan to provide feedback.

Switching to Video Meetings

@milana_cap proposed switching some of the team’s meetings to video calls, as video discussions tend to be more productive than Slack-only meetings. The team decided to add additional video calls to the monthly schedule.

New schema for docs meetings:

  • 1st in month – Slack chat
  • 2nd in month – Video call
  • 3rd in month – Slack chat
  • 4th in month – Contributor Day (video)
  • 5th in month – Video call
