In the spirit of transparency, the team announced the creation of a private room for moderators to discuss topics that have a sensitive nature, and should not be discussed in public.

Request for input: Support Stats

Some time back, the topic of stats in weekly updates was mentioned. A post for collecting input on what information may be valuable has now been set up and seeking input from community participants.

WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what they’ve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more. Europe Contributor DayContributor Day Contributor Days are standalone days, frequently held before or after WordCamps but they can also happen at any time. They are events where people get together to work on various areas of https://make.wordpress.org/ There are many teams that people can participate in, each with a different focus. https://2017.us.wordcamp.org/contributor-day/ https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/getting-started/getting-started-at-a-contributor-day/.

Contributor Day at WordCamp Europe is getting closer by the minute. As usual, there will be a Contributor Day.

As is customary on these days, we’re looking for someone who would like to help lead the Support Team table at the event. This generally includes giving a short introduction about the team at the start of the day, helping onboard new contributors through the day, and giving a summary at the end of the day. It is a great way to get more involved in the team and community.

If this sounds exciting, please throw your hand up, we’d love to have you!

Checking in with international liaisons

This is the section where we reach out to the non-English speaking parts of our community, to see how they are doing, if there’s anything we can help each other with, or just interesting things going on that it would be nice to share with others.

There’s no requirements for previous participation or “fame” to share here, anyone is welcome, and we encourage newcomers to participate!

Unable to make the meeting, or maybe meetings just aren’t your thing? We would still love to hear how things are going in other non-English speaking parts of our community. Please feel free to let us know via the comment section below, in your own time, if there is anything you’d like to share, any questions or concerns you have, or just to let us know you’re doing OK!

We will make a habit of putting this callout with every agenda post going forward, so that everyone has a chance to join in.
