For WordPress 6.1, @czapla and @bernhard-reiter will be the Editor Tech Co-leads. Since it is a first for both of them, their predecessors have graciously agreed to walk them through the process.
As this knowledge might be valuable to others – especially future generations of Editor Tech Leads – @annezazu suggested turning this into a public Hallway Hangout that will be recorded and shared.

In a nutshell, we will be covering the following topics from an Editor Tech Lead perspective:

Minor version release process
Major version release process
If you’re interested in joining, the Hallway Hangout will happen on 2022-08-11 12:00; a Zoom link will be shared in the #core-editorSlackSlackSlack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/. channel before starting. We’d be especially interested to hear from previous Editor Tech Leads about their experience and advice! However, everybody is welcome to join to get a glimpse of the ins and outs of the Editor Tech Lead role and, who knows, maybe volunteer in a future release squad !💥
The recorded session will be added to this post once it’s ready.
