Other ongoing projects and issues are:

  • WordPress Sustainability PluginPlugin 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 supported by the WP Sustainability Team. Follow up on this project here. Some issues were brought out from the previous meeting:
    • Making a list of tools for measuring websites weight or carbon emissions. Check it in GH.
    • WPSustainable plugin is closed but available for transfer the ownership.
  • WordCamp Handbook with sustainability ideas/guidelines. Learn how to contribute to this here and follow up on this project here.
  • Sustainability Team self-approval system. As nobody had any counterproposals or suggestions we consider it approved. During this meeting we’ll write and, hopefully, publish the official post.

If you have any updates on issues or projects that we have previously discussed, you are free to bring them up during the meeting.
