Annoucements & Open Q&A
Community Summit is moving to WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what they’ve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more. Europe 2017 in Paris, France! There will still be a Contributor Day at WCUS, so it’s great if you can make this still.
