  1. A list of topics/issues that are relevant for the progress of the team and the WordPress open sourceOpen Source Open Source denotes software for which the original source code is made freely available and may be redistributed and modified.

  2. A list of representatives to attend the Community Summit (this will be based primarily on the topics or tasks).
  3. One or two contributors who are willing to help with the organization of the event.

If you have any suggestions for topics or tasks that would benefit from in-person discussion, or are interested in helping out with organizing the event, please comment below or pingPing The act of sending a very small amount of data to an end point.
