  • Language vs Locale: Please share your thoughts on the Learn WP site setup: should your locale have a site on its own, or is it ok to be combined with other variants (e.g. can we have one site for fr_FR/fr_CA/fr_BE?)
• Feedback due date for Proposal: Polyglots Team Plans for 2021 is January 31st
• Welcome Slackbot for newcomers added to #polyglots channel
