Bhopal Contributor DayContributor Day Contributor Days are standalone days, frequently held before or after WordCamps but they can also happen at any time. They are events where people get together to work on various areas of https://make.wordpress.org/ There are many teams that people can participate in, each with a different focus. https://2017.us.wordcamp.org/contributor-day/ https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/getting-started/getting-started-at-a-contributor-day/. on Saturday (October 7, 2023). The Contributors Day can bring some new contributors to the channel 

@webcommsa shared an update on the docs release for 6.4. She explained that avoid adding the Google folder to the public minutes, as two of the cohorts can not access Google Drive to update the documents in there so we have temporarily had to enable it to link access for editing until their access to Google Drive can be solved. She also referred to the statement of @cbringmann” Dev Chat recently, you do not have to be on the squad or in the cohort to get involved in an aspect of the release.”

@estelaris will be leading the docs team at Yoast Contributor Day tomorrow. Will focus on good first issues and the 6.3 task board. @anandau14 showed interest in the contribution to the docs release for 6.4. @webcommsa advised @anandau14 to participate in Yoast Contributor Day with @estelaris
