Two-Factor Authentication — First Weekly Meeting!

Our very first first weekly meeting will be July 23rd, 2015 at 15:00 EDT in the #core-passwords channel on SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/..

We’ll be addressing some varied issues such as:

  • meeting times (is this a good time for everyone? Is earlier/later better?)
  • Two-Factor Providers, who is working on each.
  • Open Issues.
  • Code Reviews.
  • etc.

As I’m going on Paternity leave in mid-September for a bit, I’m also hoping that over the next few weeks we can collectively find someone else willing to take up the mantle and push Two-Factor forward in my absence.

For anyone else just new to this, who is wondering what the deuce I’m talking about, Two-Factor is a feature proposal for core to introduce two-factor support in the interest of greater security and paving the cowpaths with a standard api for plugins to extend to provide their own two-factor providers. Active development is currently on GitHub here ==> https://github.com/georgestephanis/two-factor — and I’m happy to add any regular core contributors as contributors on the repo — just ask during our meeting or in the comments below!
