Items discussed at yesterday’s Support Team Meetup All local/regional gatherings that are officially a part of the WordPress world but are not WordCamps are organized through https://www.meetup.com/. A meetup is typically a chance for local WordPress users to get together and share new ideas and seek help from one another. Searching for ‘WordPress’ on meetup.com will help you find options in your area.:

Don’t redo The Clone Wars or get into The Fork Awakens
Please don’t engage in ‘ZOMG! They stole my plugin 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 https://wordpress.org/plugins/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party!’ fights on the forums. Send the developer to “plugins[at]wordpress.org The community site where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location for community conversations and organization. https://wordpress.org/” and the plugins team will handle it. Public shaming of that sort of thing is ugly, unkind, and not to be encouraged.
If a moderator encounters a topic like that then please leave the note and close the topic.
Any big WordPress 4.3 problems?
This is a repeat item but there does not seem to be any major issues with 4.3. Except for a missing checkbox when creating new users the topic have been mild.
There has been a number of repeat topics about 4.3 but those have mostly been the result of aggressive caching somewhere.
