WordPress 4.9.5

WordPress 4.9.5 was released two days ago. So far we haven’t had any trouble.

Onboarding

Did you do a volunteer onboarding session with us in the past, and would you be willing to share feedback on it? Or, would you be interested in joining an upcoming volunteer onboarding session?

If so, please reach out to @zoonini in SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform https://slack.com/. The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at https://make.wordpress.org/chat/.!

In our onboarding sessions, you’ll learn how to use the forums, how to best help people, and you’ll make a few friends along the way. 🙂

Our last onboarding session was in February.

Checking in with international liaisons

The Swedish, German, Brazilian, and Greek communities had representatives stop by our meeting this week.

If you do support for WordPress in non-English speaking communities, please do stop by and say hello during our meetings so we can share experiences.
