  2. Start on a roadmap for GDPR compliance for core. There were few prerequisites identified in the gdpr-compliance channel. We'll need to have clear understanding about:
    • What is considered personal information in WordPress?
      • Emails, IP addresses.
      • Are posts and comments personal information? What about private posts?
      • Are login names personal information?
      • Anything else?
    • Who are the identifiable persons?
      • Are site owners "controllers"?
      • Are all admins site owners?
      • On multisitemultisite Used to describe a WordPress installation with a network of multiple blogs, grouped by sites. This installation type has shared users tables, and creates separate database tables for each blog (wp_posts becomes wp_0_posts). See also network, blog, site installs, who are controllers: site admins or only the networknetwork (versus site, blog) admins?
      • Are people that post comments and don't have accounts "identifiable persons"?

As always, please suggest other agenda items in the comments.
