Announcements/Reminders
@jadonn posted a callout for ideas for new initiatives for the team. Please bring them to the meeting on Oct 24!
Gutenberg The Gutenberg project is the new Editor Interface for WordPress. The editor improves the process and experience of creating new content, making writing rich content much simpler. It uses ‘blocks’ to add richness rather than shortcodes, custom HTML etc. https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/
The team is still looking for more ways to contribute to the Gutenberg / 5.0 rollout. Whether related to the above call for ideas or separately, feel free to reach out to the team in #hosting-community if we can help.
@mikeschroder connected with @francina and @pandjarov about a user’s Gutenberg whitescreen issue. It looks to have been specific to that site, rather than the platform. Thanks for the details, both!
@mikeschroder noted additional availability for Gutenberg related tasks.
