3. Open Floor

During the open floor, @greenshady shared that, he is hoping to return to the Theme Handbook overhaul project soon. Which is one of the good news.

During the meeting, he said, “There’s a lot of old classic theme docs that need to be overhauled or moved. Would the team be OK with just moving the old docs to the Classic Themes chapter at first? Then, can we more slowly iterate and update over time? Doing a big overhaul of all the old docs at once doesn’t seem to be the best route.”

He added, Just for context on the above doc question, there are a lot of questions from themers/users on why there are multiple top-level pages with similar information. So I think this would help lower confusion as we work through the docs. But if we have thumbs up, I’ll go ahead and start planning this for the coming weeks. @kafleg is also interested in helping if needed.

@bijayyadav agreed and said, “Yes, good to have moved the old docs to the Classic Themes chapter at first and slowly update over time”.

Another attendee, @rollybueno, asked the question about inactivity duration in the tracTrac Trac is the place where contributors create issues for bugs or feature requests much like GitHub.https://core.trac.wordpress.org/..

As there were small groups of attendees and no more agendas to discuss in the meeting, @bijayyadav closed the meeting.
