December 6th Support Team Meeting Summary

Starting with a quick reminder: It’s OK to take a break, everyone’s been a bit on edge with this release, remember that you are volunteers and have no obligations here, walk away and unwind instead if you feel like it, we’ve got this covered.

And as always with major releases, please keep general banter in the #forums 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/. room to a minimum to avoid us missing important shared information after a release.

We hope to have the revised support guidelines released this weekend if all goes well, input is still welcome via GitHubGitHub GitHub is a website that offers online implementation of git repositories that can easily be shared, copied and modified by other developers.
