Tide Chat Summary: February 12th

This post summarizes the Tide chat meeting from February 12th in the #tide Slack channel (agenda, Slack archive).

Reminder that the current Tide focus is integrating PHP Compatibility data from Tide into WordPress.org.  Once PHP Compatibility is integrated into WordPress.org, we’ll assess the next focus to provide the biggest impact to the community.

1.0.0-beta2 + documentation

  • Continued search for folks to help with documentation and testing, please reach out if you’re available.
  • Also continued search for folks with Go and/or Google Cloud Platform experience to help finish off items for Tide 1.0.0, please reach out if you’re available.
  • Discussion on current docs process and site, will investigate Gutenberg handbook documentation process to see if it would apply well for Tide
  • Looking for simple/easy way to push docs up to a site like wptide.org from a GitHub repo

Tide Dashicon

  • @cathibosco1: Marketing team let us know that Community-team handles the stickers and pins for WordCamps, sent request to #community-team channel to get Tide icon added to the collection
  • Long-running project to convert Dashicons to SVG not likely to wrap soon, so @jeffpaul to continue looking to get Dashicons update merged at beginning of WP 5.2 release cycle

Theme Review Team

  • @joyously joined the chat to follow discussion from #themereview meeting on possibly leveraging Tide with the Theme Sniffer
  • Tide could utilize TRT ruleset and audit the existing themes and then all new submissions/updates, could also integrate other theme-specific rulesets as desired
  • Existing themes could be audited in a couple of hours, but work would be needed to support the new ruleset and specific integration with TRT tools and processes
  • Will investigate this further after .ORG integration of PHP Compat data

Next meeting

The next meeting will take place on February 19, 2019 at 20:00 UTC in the #tide Slack channel.  Please feel free to drop in with any updates or questions.  If you have items to discuss but cannot make the meeting, please leave a comment on this post so that we can take them into account.

Reminder that the current Tide focus is integrating PHP Compatibility data from Tide into WordPress.org.  Once PHP Compatibility is integrated into WordPress.org, we’ll assess the next focus to provide the biggest impact to the community.

1.0.0-beta2 timing

  • Proposal to merge wptide-PR#173 and docs-PR#19, then tag 1.0.0-beta2 with any other updates ready to land
  • Next step will be ensuring docs on wptide.org are accurate and there’s a straightforward way to manage them (ideally via a GitHub repo or /docs/ folder)
  • Docs need to be stable (see above) and the pkg-PR#17 needs tests fixed before 1.0.0-beta2 can be released

General announcements

  • Note that WPCS 2.0.0 was released this week
  • @cathibosco1 making progress on getting Tide dashicon available for use on Make/Tide and other marketing efforts

WCUS Contributor Day

This past weekend we had a handful of folks join us at the Tide table at WordCamp US Contributor Day. Thanks to @valendesigns for helping lead our efforts and to @kkoppenhaver, @croixhaug, @pwtyler, @shadyvb, Charlie Tranen, and @cathibosco1 for contributing their time and efforts to improving Tide!

During the morning and afternoon sessions, we achieved the following:

  • Got new contributors setup and running with Tide locally
  • Resolved some bugs found while getting folks setup and were able to get those merged as well
  • The local install docs (see updates coming in PR#173) are now much more concise and complete for macOS, which was a blocker for 1.0.0 and getting PHP Compatibility results into .ORG
  • With help from the Design, Marketing, and Meta teams we Made progress on the official Tide Dashicon, and hope to see that become available during one of the first few 5.0.x minor releases
  • With help from the Design team we started to define the terms “team” vs “contributor” so we can start to credit people’s .ORG profiles with applicable Tide badges

Next up for Tide is completing issues tagged for 1.0.0-beta2 so that we have an endpoint for .ORG to sync PHP Compatibility results from and then eventually for 1.0.0 to release and begin work with Meta to display the PHP Compatibility data for plugins and themes on the .ORG repository.
