There was a very interesting discussion arising from the open call on the new 5ftF channel at #five-for-the-future. Some of the topics brought to the conversation were:

  • The lack of structure of the contributors representation which makes it difficult for contributors to make decisions and influence the direction of the project.
  • Why people do not make contributions that can be tracked as 5ftF.
  • A proposal (draft) for a cross-CMS working group.
  • Relationship between a useful and well-structured funding system for contributors and good coordination between contributor representation and governance.
  • Governance models options and examples.
  • The role of Sustainability Team on this.

➡️ Environmental Sustainability

  • A new document has been created to start structuring the information on web sustainability guidelines for WordPress. Also, a decision on the sections is need in order to complete the structure and continue the information collection.
