Dev Chat Summary for May 22, 2013

Here’s the belated dev chat summary from last Wednesday (sorry about the delay!)

Chat log.

Agenda

  • Android BetaBeta A pre-release of software that is given out to a large group of users to trial under real conditions. Beta versions have gone through alpha testing in-house and are generally fairly close in look, feel and function to the final product; however, design changes often occur as part of the process. & What’s Next
  • iOSiOS The operating system used on iPhones and iPads. NUX/Accounts

Android Beta & What’s Next

The beta was delayed a week since some parts of the apps were not done. New submit/announce date should be June 3.

iOS NUX/Accounts

iOS NUX is almost done (again!), translations are synced back up and most are complete. Looks like we’ll be able to submit soon. [editor’s note: as of Friday the plan is to submit by EOD or Monday]

iOS Accounts release will most likely be bundled with the new WordPress.comWordPress.com An online implementation of WordPress code that lets you immediately access a new WordPress environment to publish your content. WordPress.com is a private company owned by Automattic that hosts the largest multisite in the world. This is arguably the best place to start blogging if you have never touched WordPress before. https://wordpress.com/ Reader update which should be the next one to be released after NUX.

Next Week

The next dev chat will be on May 29, 2013 at 1500 UTC. Mark your calendar and join us in #wordpress-mobile on Freenode.
