Please note: As a friendly reminder, @kenshino and @ninianepress will be trained by @estelaris to be the Docs Team leads for the next WordPress minor releaseMinor Release A set of releases or versions having the same minor version number may be collectively referred to as .x , for example version 5.2.x to refer to versions 5.2, 5.2.1, 5.2.3, and all other versions in the 5.2 (five dot two) branch of that software. Minor Releases often make improvements to existing features and functionality..

@rollybueno mentioned and agreed to the proposed solution @masteradhoc communicated before the meeting:

• The Apply to Inner Blocks feature discussed in GitHub issue #40069 was merged into core and could potentially be added to the Block Locking API documentation page.

@estelaris and @atachibana approved of the suggestion, and @atachibana suggested that @masteradhoc open a GitHub issue for Gutenberg.

The corresponding issue #70584 was created by @masteradhoc immediately following the meeting.
