  • Continuation Plan: Enhancing our PHPUnit test runner and PHPUnit test reporter by adding new capabilities and moving it to the latest tech stack.

  • Improve communication: Contact all the testers to see if the team can help improve the information and feedback.

Documentation Projects

  • Advanced Admin Documentation: Updating and expanding our resources to cover the latest trends and best practices in WordPress administration.
  • Hosting Handbook: Continually refining our handbook to make it an even more comprehensive guide for both new and veteran WordPress hosts.
  • Migrate content: There is some documentation in the Hosting Handbook that should be in the Advanced Administration or, maybe, other handbooks.

The Hosting Event 2024

  • Event Planning: Organizing a hosting-centric WordPress event in June 2024 (before WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress.
