Community headlines and updates

This is where news that are relevant or good to know for the team from across the community are brought up and shared.

WordPress 6.4 Beta-3

RC-1 is right around the corner, so please help test WordPress 6.4 if you can!

New support guidelines

The process for the updated support guidelines is finished, and feedback has been incorporated where applicable.

As there were no major concerns with the timing proposed in the agenda, and given the long feedback period given, the plan remains to publish them fully on the upcoming Monday, October 16th. The publication will be accompanied by a post here on make/support to help signal boost the update, and add some specific clarification that is relevant to theme and plugin authors.

APAC friendly meeting times

There’s been some talk of a desire for more Asia-Pacific (APAC) friendly support meeting times. This is something the team has wanted to do, and although previous attempts lacked volunteers in the area with the time available to do so, we now have some volunteers, and are hoping to get that under way. More information will be posted about this once the involved volunteers have had a chance to plan it out!

Checking in with international liaisons

None of the teams international liaisons had any concerns or special events/news to share at this time.
