Updates on the Google Season of Docs 2020 projects:

@tacitonic reported this week:

@dianamivelli begun working on the GitHub for the classification project and will start tracking progress and content in that repository. In the meantime, @estelaris will open a ticket to move the repository to WordPress.

Open Floor

Last week, @joyously mentioned that the page on how to contribute to the block editor was difficult to find. There was a discussion and as a quick fix, the team agreed to upload a link to the welcome box.

The team is asking the team reps to decide where will be the best place to add that link for easy finding. @milana_capsuggested a sidebar with all the “Get Start” links and are waiting for response from @kenshinoand @atachibana.

Our band is growing, as suggested by @milana_cap we are listing the musicians in our team.
