# Tide Chat Summary: October 2nd

This post summarizes the Tide chat meeting from October 2nd in the [#tide](https://wordpress.slack.com/messages/#tide/)
SlackSlack Slack is a Collaborative Group Chat Platform [https://slack.com/](https://slack.com/).
The WordPress community has its own Slack Channel at [https://make.wordpress.org/chat/](https://make.wordpress.org/chat/)
channel ([Slack archive](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C7TK8FBUJ/p1538510414000100)).

_Reminder that the current Tide focus is integrating PHPPHP PHP (recursive acronym
for PHP: Hypertext Preprocessor) is a widely-used open source general-purpose scripting
language that is especially suited for web development and can be embedded into 
HTML. [https://www.php.net/manual/en/index.php](https://www.php.net/manual/en/index.php)
Compatibility data from Tide into WordPress.orgWordPress.org The community site 
where WordPress code is created and shared by the users. This is where you can download
the source code for WordPress core, plugins and themes as well as the central location
for community conversations and organization. [https://wordpress.org/](https://wordpress.org/).
Once PHP Compatibility is integrated into WordPress.org, we’ll assess the next focus
to provide the biggest impact to the community._

## Repo deletion

 * Reminder that we [decommissioned several repos](https://make.wordpress.org/tide/2018/09/05/tide-chat-summary-september-4th/)
   for the alpha version of Tide from WCUS 2017 and we’ll be deleting those repos
   shortly, see:
    - https://github.com/wptide/api/issues/9
    - https://github.com/wptide/lighthouse-server/issues/3
    - https://github.com/wptide/sync-server/issues/17
    - https://github.com/wptide/audit-server/issues/26
    - https://github.com/wptide/tide-local/issues/14
 * **Please call out any questions or concerns about fully deleting those repos 
   here, in [#tide](https://wordpress.slack.com/messages/#tide/), or on the issues
   linked above**

## Setup and testing feedback

 * When testing the Tide local setup, use [this branch](https://github.com/wptide/wptide/pull/167)
   as it addresses the issue where the Lighthouse image was failing to build
 * Looking for feedback ([ideally via GitHub issues](https://github.com/wptide/wptide/issues))
   from anyone who has been able to attempt the setup and running of Tide locally
 * **For those who get the time to run through the local setup and can provide feedback(
   positive or negative), then we’d appreciate the contribution!**

## Next meeting

The next meeting will take place on [October 9, 2018 at 20:00 UTC](https://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/fixedtime.html?iso=20181009T2000)
in the [#tide](https://wordpress.slack.com/messages/#tide/) Slack channel.  Please
