## Summary of WordPress Hosting Directory Project

### The Basics

The WordPress Hosting Directory project aims to provide a comprehensive, objective,
and community-driven resource for selecting WordPress hosting services. By leveraging
both technical criteria and community contributions, the directory will support 
informed decision-making for users while fostering greater transparency and collaboration
within the WordPress ecosystem. The project welcomes community involvement and feedback
to ensure its success and relevance.

### Overview

The WordPress Hosting Team discussed the [proposal for the “WordPress Hosting Directory” project](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2024/05/10/proposal-wordpress-hosting-directory/).
The goal is to create a directory to help users choose hosting services based on
objective criteria such as technical features, proximity, and community contributions.
This directory aims to be a reliable resource for WordPress users, supporting informed
decision-making for their hosting needs.

### Key Discussion Points

 1.  **Project Background and Goals**
 2.   * The project has evolved from previous proposals and initiatives, such as the
        [WordPress.org Recommended Hosts Page Requirement Matrix Criteria](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1uvb3LsOyTZ0D2mVw7yokfCxMb0lCkFWdSnXD1b-2HWU/),
        [Project Bedrock](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FhjFjY9I6gn6uqz4oBsHvYzxnrUg0RfAYuRhlLjdWec/),
        and [Hosting Application Rubric](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dImuG_wzrimUuJ3hPGZjzxHlL0QqQCpM4Ond5CcNT0A/).
      * The directory will feature extensive filtering options, including hosting type(
        shared, VPSVPS A virtual private server (VPS) is a virtual machine sold as 
        a service by an Internet hosting service. A VPS runs its own copy of an operating
        system (OS), and customers may have superuser-level access to that operating
        system instance, so they can install almost any software that runs on that 
        OS., cloud), WP-CLIWP-CLI WP CLI is the Command Line Interface for WordPress,
        used to do administrative and development tasks in a programmatic way. access,
        and serverServer A server is a piece of computer hardware or software that 
        provides functionality for other programs or devices. Typical servers are database
        servers, file servers, mail servers, print servers, web servers, game servers,
        and application servers. energy types, among others, totaling over 50 variables.
 3.  **Community and Technical Contributions**
 4.   * The directory will also highlight hosting providers’ contributions to the WordPress
        community, incorporating elements like Five for the Future (5ftF) commitments.
      * An example project similar in spirit is Yoast’s WordPress Hosting overview.
 5.  **Hosting (Data) Review Team**
 6.   * A new Hosting Review Team will be formed to oversee and validate the data submitted
        by hosting providers.
      * The review process will likely involve initial private reviews to resolve sensitive
        issues before making data public on platforms like GitHubGitHub GitHub is a
        website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can can 
        easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers. Public repositories
        are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub 
        introduced the concept of the ‘pull request’ where code changes done in branches
        by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged be the repository
        owner..
      * Transparency is a key aim, but balancing it with privacy and sensitivity is
        essential to avoid conflicts and misinformation.
 7.  **Process and Workflow**
 8.   * Initial reviews may be conducted privately to iron out issues before public
        disclosure.
      * Discussions suggested mimicking successful practices from the [Plugins Review Team](https://make.wordpress.org/plugins/)
        and [Themes Review Team](https://make.wordpress.org/themes/) as well as the
        vetting process currently in place for WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual,

        sponsoring.
      * Public transparency is preferred, but sensitive initial discussions may be 
        necessary to maintain quality and avoid conflicts.
 9.  **Technical Implementation**
 10.  * The [JSON Schema for hosting providers’ data](https://github.com/javiercasares/wordpress-hosting-directory-schema)
        has [been drafted](https://github.com/javiercasares/wordpress-hosting-directory-schema/blob/main/json-schema/hosting-directory-schema.json),
        and a [sample JSON](https://github.com/javiercasares/wordpress-hosting-directory-schema/blob/main/json-schema/hosting-directory-schema.example.json)
        is available for reference.
      * A [tool for generating JSON files](https://github.com/javiercasares/wordpress-hosting-directory-schema/tree/generator/generator)
        is under development, inviting contributions from developers and hosting providers.
 11. **Next Steps**
 12.  * Discussions and work planned for [WordCamp Europe 2024 Contributor Day](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2024/05/01/wordcamp-europe-2024-contributor-day/).
      * Refining the JSONJSON JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) is an open standard
        file format, and data interchange format, that uses human-readable text to 
        store and transmit data objects consisting of attribute–value pairs and array
        data types. It is a very common data format, with a diverse range of applications,
        such as serving as a replacement for XML in AJAX systems. Schema and creating
        the initial version of the directory pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software
        containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They
        can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress
        plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly
        with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress.org Plugin Directory or 
        can be cost-based plugin from a third-party..
      * Collecting and reviewing the first JSON submissions from hosting providers.
      * Publishing the directory plugin and website.
      * Expanding the review team and scaling the process globally.

### Concerns and Challenges

 * **Public vs. Private Reviews**
    - Balancing public transparency with the need for private initial reviews to
      handle sensitive issues.
    - Concerns about public conflicts and misinformation were raised, suggesting
      initial private handling before public release.
 * **Vetting and Compliance**
    - Ensuring hosters comply with community standards and technical requirements.
    - Developing a rubric to assess community contributions and technical reliability.
    - Addressing concerns about subjectivity in vetting processes, especially around
      values and historical brand perception.
 * **Technical and Community Integration**
    - Creating a seamless process for hosters to submit and update their data.
    - Leveraging community input to refine and improve the directory over time.

### Community Engagement

 * Encouraging participation from developers, hosting providers, and community members.
 * Inviting feedback on the JSON Schema and contributions to the plugin development.
 * Emphasizing the importance of community feedback and transparency throughout 
   the project.

Last Wednesday we had a meeting, and this is a summary of everything that happened
there.

SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform [https://slack.com/](https://slack.com/).
The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at [https://make.wordpress.org/chat/](https://make.wordpress.org/chat/)

## Data Liberation

About **Data Liberation**, maybe the team can help with some documentations. This
project is focused on moving around different CMS (mainly), but we can try on helping
to move around some technical things like domains, DNSDNS The Domain Name System(
DNS) is a hierarchical and decentralized naming system for resources connected to
the Internet. Most prominently, it translates more readily memorized domain names
to the numerical IP addresses needed for locating and identifying computer services
and devices with the underlying network protocols. or hostings.

## Cloudfest Hackathon

The [WordPress Tools for Hosting Providers project](https://hackathon.cloudfest.com/project/enhanced-wordpress-unit-testing-suite/)
has been selected to participate on March 16-18, 2024 in the CloudFest Hackathon.

For this reason, we have 5 goals for that date.

The first is to leave a stable, functional, and documented version of the _test-
runner_ tool so that everyone works on that version. There is a [PR #199](https://github.com/WordPress/phpunit-test-runner/pull/199)
that establishes those changes and that base. It has been thoroughly tested and 
should serve as a basis so that the errors we have previously encountered are not
there.

The second is to do the same work that has been done on the _test-runner_ but on
the _test-reporter_ so that we also have a more or less stable version to work on
the pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions
that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new
features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming
language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress.
org Plugin Directory or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party..

The third is to leave documentation of the entire operation of the tools and how
to set them up in a development environment, as well as how they can be tested (
each tool will need its explanation, since one is best to have a very “hostingHosting
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals
and organizations to make their website accessible via the World Wide Web.” environment,
and for the plugin, to have a WordPress development environment of its own).

The fourth, which involves everyone, is to define a list of “what things we want
the tools to have.” In principle, there should be two lists, which must complement
each other. One that executes the test-runner and allows executing “things”, and
the other of the test-reporter that collects all that and displays it on the screen,
in addition to planning warnings.

The fifth and last is to say that those who want to come to hack a bit, give a read
to [Come Hack with Us.](https://hackathon.cloudfest.com/attendee-info-registration/)
We look forward to seeing you March 16-18, 2024, especially to have a great time!

## Team Goals for 2024

SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform [https://slack.com/](https://slack.com/).
The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at [https://make.wordpress.org/chat/](https://make.wordpress.org/chat/)
[conversation](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C3D6T7F8Q/p1704910017614549).

Testing Project with the HostingHosting A web hosting service is a type of Internet
hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to make their website 
accessible via the World Wide Web. Tests

 * Continuation Plan: Enhancing our [PHPUnit test runner](https://github.com/WordPress/phpunit-test-runner)
   and [PHPUnit test reporter](https://github.com/WordPress/phpunit-test-reporter)
   by adding new capabilities and moving it to the latest tech stack.
 * Community Involvement: Inviting more hosting companies to participate and share
   their insights to enrich this project.
 * 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. They're one of the places where the WordPress

   Europe 2024).

CloudFest Hackathon 2024

 * The [WordPress Tools for Hosting Providers](https://hackathon.cloudfest.com/project/enhanced-wordpress-unit-testing-suite/)
   project has been selected to participate on March 16-18, 2024 in the CloudFest
   Hackathon.

About this last…

Some ideas that people asked in the past for the “test-runner”:

 * WP-CLIWP-CLI WP CLI is the Command Line Interface for WordPress, used to do administrative
   and development tasks in a programmatic way. Unit testingUnit test Unit testing
   is a software testing method by which individual units of source code—sets of
   one or more computer program modules together with associated control data, usage
   procedures, and operating procedures—are tested to determine whether they are
   fit for use.
 * test the WordPress + some “blueprint” (some themes and plugins)

and, for the reporter:

 * list “by provider”
 * list by “php-extension” / versions

We will publish soon a more detailed post about the Cloudfest Hackathon project.

## WordPress Hosting Team event

Floating ideas:

 * Event about hosting, security, performance, and sustainability.
 * Event date: 2023-06-12 (so, Wednesday before 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/](https://make.wordpress.org/)
   There are many teams that people can participate in, each with a different focus.
   [https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/getting-started/getting-started-at-a-contributor-day/](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/getting-started/getting-started-at-a-contributor-day/)/
   WCEU)
 * Event time around 0800-1400 (this will leave the afternoon free, so there is 
   time to visit the city or go to WCEU sponsor events)
 * One track, but two kinds of talks: “Community” and “Professional”. “Community”
   from the community to the attendees, so we can show WordPress projects and how
   Host can benefit and contribute. “Professional” so professionals can give us 
   some great talks about what they are doing around hosting, security, performance,
   and sustainability…

When we have some OK from different parts involved, and we can start, officially,
we will announce everything and start detailing more. We already have a location
in Torino that would be available.

We will probably have 80-100 attendance… so, we may need to limit the people from
the same company, so at least, 40-50 different companies can attend… [some ideas came in](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C3D6T7F8Q/p1704910929266839).

## Team meetings

Future meetings will be these for the first trimester:

 * 2024-01-10 1800 UTC (this meeting)
 * 2024-01-24 0900 UTC
 * 2024-02-07 1800 UTC
 * 2024-02-21 0900 UTC
 * 2024-03-06 1800 UTC
 * 2024-03-20 0900 UTC
 * 2024-03-27 0900 UTC (tentative, WordPress 6.5 release)

## Office hours

Same as we are working on reducing the weekly meetings, the focus for this 2024 
is to increase the work on Documentation and Tools, and support for Hosting providers.

We will propose a calendar for those meetings.

Topics:

 * Documentation ([Hosting Team Handbook](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/handbook/))
 * Documentation ([Advanced Admin Handbook](https://developer.wordpress.org/advanced-administration/))
 * Tools ([Test Runner](https://github.com/WordPress/phpunit-test-runner) aka test-
   runner)
 * Tools ([API and Results Page](https://github.com/wordpress/phpunit-test-reporter)
   aka test-reporter)

The idea is to have at least a weekly meeting about one of these topics.

WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything
related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes
together to teach one another what they’ve learned throughout the year and share
the joy. [Learn more](https://central.wordcamp.org/about/). US 2022 is over, and
it’s [time to review what we were able to review and achieve at the Contributor Day](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2022/09/08/wordcamp-us-2022-contributor-day/).

Today’s focus was the creation of the new [WordPress Advanced Administration Handbook](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2022/09/07/wordpress-advanced-administration-handbook/).
22 Issues / PR have been merged (16 pending), so that makes more than a 50% improvement
of this Handbook. Thank you all that participated creating and copying content.

# 󠀁[WordPress Hosting Team 2021 Summary](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2022/01/09/wordpress-hosting-team-2021-summary/)󠁿

Happy 2022! We have just started the year and from the WordPress HostingHosting 
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals
and organizations to make their website accessible via the World Wide Web. Team 
we wanted to make a summary of some interesting points achieved throughout 2021.

The year started with [the election of new representatives](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2021/01/06/hosting-team-rep-election/),
[@amykamala](https://profiles.wordpress.org/amykamala/), [@crixu](https://profiles.wordpress.org/crixu/),
[@jadonn](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jadonn/), and [@javiercasares](https://profiles.wordpress.org/javiercasares/),
who have been leading the weekly meetings and supporting the Hosting team and other
WordPress teams.

When the time change arrived (DST) at the beginning of the year, it was also definitively
[established that there will be no more changes in the meeting times](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2021/03/17/weekly-meeting-schedule-dst-update/)
even if there are changes in the DST, so the meetings are on Wednesdays at 09:00
UTC and 18:00 UTC.

In March we [presented the idea of doing a global Meetup](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2021/03/04/summary-for-team-meeting-2021-03-03/)
focused on [hosting elements and everything related to the more technical](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2021/04/01/hosting-team-meeting-summary-2021-03-31/),
but non-developmental, elements of WordPress, the [WordPress Hosting Live](https://www.meetup.com/wphosting/).

The result is we have the [Meetup](https://www.meetup.com/wphosting/) page, and 
our [Youtube](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUHFMCXJxXHcfls9w6Hzt6A) and [Twitter](https://twitter.com/WPHostingTeam)
channels.

Although the most worked project has been the definitive recommendation for all 
hostings to [include, by default, the php-intl extension](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2021/05/20/why-hosters-should-install-the-php-intl-extension/)
that will soon help to improve the quality of the code of WordPress itself regarding,
above all, the internationalization of the project.

The [Hosting Handbook](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/handbook/) has been updated
with some updates to adapt the system requirements to WordPress, in addition to 
making several minor corrections.

And the PHPUnit Test Reporter is doing a lot of focus on [upgrading to be compatible with PHP 8.0](https://github.com/WordPress/phpunit-test-reporter/issues/82)
and later versions.

And finally, I would like to [thank all those who participate](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/pledges/)
in [Five for the Future](https://wordpress.org/five-for-the-future/) and who have
dedicated their time in 2021 to collaborate in the hosting team.

After listing the [items on the agenda](https://make.wordpress.org/hosting/2021/05/12/hosting-team-meeting-agenda-2021-05-12/),
some extra items that have been discussed and deserve to be in the summary.

 * [Update manifest and handbook](https://github.com/WordPress/hosting-handbook/pull/80)–

About the manifest, we had some discussion about the order in those pages. There
is the possibility to add somehow the order in the JSONJSON JavaScript Object Notation(
JSON) is an open standard file format, and data interchange format, that uses human-
readable text to store and transmit data objects consisting of attribute–value pairs
and array data types. It is a very common data format, with a diverse range of applications,
such as serving as a replacement for XML in AJAX systems., or do it directly using
the “order priority” at the Handbook pages (right now is how is it).
