WordPress 4.9.4

WordPress 4.9.4 has been out for a while. So far we haven’t had any trouble.

Meeting Time

Following the rest of the globe switching to Daylight Saving Time, and by majority vote, the meeting time will remain at 17:00 UTC (exactly where it is right now) with the hope that we never change the time again.

Therefore, the next meeting will be Thursday, April 5, 2018, 17:00 UTC.
