They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what they’ve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more. Europe 2019 in Berlin was great, thanks to all the people that joined us from all over the world to make WordPress!

Moving Forward with Our Efforts
Contributor Days are productive because of the face to face interaction and the urgency: we want to get things done during the day 😉
How do we keep the momentum going? Folks, I am repeating myself here… but project management is the answer!
We have a Trello board and we don’t really use it. I suggest we discuss it, again, during our next team chat, July 4th.
Hopefully we can find a common procedure that I believe will make us more efficient.
Did I miss something? Add it in the comments, thanks!
