Tickets Covered
- #20537 seems possible, but needs an updated patch A special text file that describes changes to code, by identifying the files and lines which are added, removed, and altered. It may also be referred to as a diff. A patch can be applied to a codebase for testing.. @jrf left a note after office hours that she is going to work on it Friday.
- #26855 is likely to be punted due to a lack of recent activity. However, @spacedmonkey would like to work on a patch there, so there is still a chance this could land.
- #18088 has an updated patch by @flixos90 which needs some testing. @spacedmonkey will try to review it.
- #35379 still lacks a decision which approach to take. Considering there might possibly be major changes in handling network (versus site, blog) options coming up (see #37181), more time is required to think about the best way to tackle this bug. The ticket Created for both bug reports and feature development on the bug tracker. got punted to a future release.
- #37223 is a rather straightforward fix, but will need an updated patch. @flixos90 is going to leave a comment there to ask the author of the patch for an update.
- #36954 is being reviewed by @jeremyfelt and is likely to be merged.
- #37102 will, although being a straightforward change, not make it into 4.6 as the first beta A pre-release of software that is given out to a large group of users to trial under real conditions.

Furthermore the function
get_blog_details() has not been deprecated yet, so the ticket is not necessary to complete at this point.
Other Notes
- The 4.6 dev note Each important change in WordPress Core is documented in a developers note, (usually called dev note). Good dev notes generally include a description of the change, the decision that led to this change, and a description of how developers are supposed to work with that change. Dev notes are published on Make/Core blog during the beta phase of WordPress release cycle. Publishing dev notes is particularly important when plugin/theme authors and WordPress developers need to be aware of those changes.In general, all dev notes are compiled into a Field Guide at the beginning of the release candidate phase. for the Networks & Sites component should get ready on Wednesday. A Google doc will be used for collaboration.
If you aren’t available during the weekly multisite office hours, feel free to leave a comment here or in #core-multisite with a ticket number you’d like to see discussed.
See you next week!
