Public repositories are free to host, private repositories require a paid subscription. GitHub introduced the concept of the ‘ pull request’ where code changes done in branches by contributors can be reviewed and discussed before being merged by the repository owner. [https://github.com/](https://github.com/) repo, and we need volunteers to help us n that project. If you want to help us in validating the issues, triage process and finding and reporting errors in our published content, reply to this thread. This is your opportunity to make a difference. Remember– every contribution counts! * Our Guide program is active – if you need any help in onboarding process, we are here to help you. ### **Looking for volunteers** * Several courses are listed in the WordPress Credit course, so we’ve decided to review them thoroughly. Our goal is to catch and fix any misspellings, typos, broken links, or outdated information. * You’re welcome to go through these courses as well and create issues on GitHub if you find anything that needs attention. * Here are the courses where we need volunteers: - [https://learn.wordpress.org/course/open-source-basics-and-wordpress/](https://learn.wordpress.org/course/open-source-basics-and-wordpress/) - [https://learn.wordpress.org/course/how-decisions-are-made-in-the-wordpress-project/](https://learn.wordpress.org/course/how-decisions-are-made-in-the-wordpress-project/) - [https://learn.wordpress.org/course/community-meeting-etiquette/](https://learn.wordpress.org/course/community-meeting-etiquette/) - [https://learn.wordpress.org/course/writing-in-the-wordpress-voice/](https://learn.wordpress.org/course/writing-in-the-wordpress-voice/) - [https://learn.wordpress.org/course/basic-principles-of-conflict-resolution/](https://learn.wordpress.org/course/basic-principles-of-conflict-resolution/) - [https://learn.wordpress.org/course/beginner-wordpress-user/](https://learn.wordpress.org/course/beginner-wordpress-user/) - [https://learn.wordpress.org/course/intermediate-wordpress-user/](https://learn.wordpress.org/course/intermediate-wordpress-user/) - [https://learn.wordpress.org/course/advanced-wordpress-user/](https://learn.wordpress.org/course/advanced-wordpress-user/) And, once again, big shoutout to [@margheweb](https://profiles.wordpress.org/margheweb/) and all the guys and girls from Italian community for working on this. Thank you! ### **Update for last week’s triage squad** * No meeting last week. * But, thanks to [@mosescursor](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mosescursor/) we started moving things in PR resolution, so we can say that the machine started to work! ### **Other news** * As we can [see here](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02RW657Q/p1760851957107709),** WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress.

As far as I know, nothing like that exists yet. AI can certainly be very helpful as a supporting tool. But do we need clear rules for its use? And if so, in which areas — and what might those rules look like in practice? - [@mohkatz](https://profiles.wordpress.org/mohkatz/): True, this is important as AI gets more integrated in all workflows and across teams. Our fellow colleagues/ volunteers at [#docs](https://make.wordpress.org/training/tag/docs/) had kickstarted something I saw a few months ago not sure how far they’ve gotten with its implementation. We could also formulate something similar or more streamlined guidelines that leverage AI without sacrificing human originality, thought, agency, creativity and voice. https://make.wordpress.org/docs/2025/07/24/proposal- responsible-ai-workflow-for-creating-new-documentation-for-wordpress-6-9/ You can see all meetings scheduled on [this meeting calendar](https://make.wordpress.org/meetings/#training).

[Should Learn WordPress contributors be GPL compliant?](https://make.wordpress.org/training/2021/09/21/should-learn-wordpress-contributors-be-gpl-compliant/) discussion on LearnWP is open for comments. There was a question by [@webcommsat](https://profiles.wordpress.org/webcommsat/): what happens if a presenter changes their GPLGPL GPL is an acronym for GNU Public License. It is the standard license WordPress uses for Open Source licensing [https://wordpress.org/about/license/](https://wordpress.org/about/license/). The GPL is a ‘copyleft’ license [https://www.gnu.org/licenses/copyleft.en.html](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/copyleft.en.html).

[PROPOSAL: Ensuring high-quality video contributions to Learn WordPress](https://make.wordpress.org/training/2021/09/27/proposal-ensuring-high-quality-video-contributions-to-learn-wordpress/) is still open for comments. LearnWP content needs to be of high quality, but most people don’t often have access to expensive recording equipment and it’s unrealistic to expect everyone to match the video quality of those that do. Production quality must not be a blocker for those contributing their skills and knowledge to LearnWP. [#marketing](https://make.wordpress.org/training/tag/marketing/) is working on a session about this at their meeting next week at 14:00 UTC, please feel free to join the discussion. 7.

[@courane01](https://profiles.wordpress.org/courane01/) has also reached out to [#docs](https://make.wordpress.org/training/tag/docs/) who have similar needs. Please let us know if you are also interested in contributing. 9. [Windows testers needed for dev testing environment](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02RW657Q/p1629219403321500)– [@caseymilne](https://profiles.wordpress.org/caseymilne/) has some draft setup guidelines for various types of setup options for local development but could use more testers to try different setups on Mac and Windows. 10.

Note there will be no Office or Coffee Hour this week due to WCUS. ## Sprint ### Check-in 1. What did you commit to last week? 2. What did you do? 3. Any blockers? 4. What will you do next week? ### Progress [Mini-Sprint](https://make.wordpress.org/training/2021/09/24/lesson-plans-to-workshops-a-mini-sprint/): we are integrating the work we are doing with the work the Instructional Designers are working on. We now have a few new Instructional Designers: [@rkohilakis](https://profiles.wordpress.org/rkohilakis/) and @westnz The following [team members provided updates on where they are at with their commitments](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C02RW657Q/p1632846749012400): [@peteringersoll](https://profiles.wordpress.org/peteringersoll/) [@rkohilakis](https://profiles.wordpress.org/rkohilakis/) [@courane01](https://profiles.wordpress.org/courane01/) [@arasae](https://profiles.wordpress.org/arasae/) [@magicroundabout](https://profiles.wordpress.org/magicroundabout/) [@webcommsat](https://profiles.wordpress.org/webcommsat/) @westnz @hughlashbrooke We have a few lesson plans ready to be created. 1.

[Introduction to Gutenberg](https://trello.com/c/rN1WBcOa) [@webcommsat](https://profiles.wordpress.org/webcommsat/) suggested [@bobbingwide](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bobbingwide/) might be able to help with this one. This relates to the GutenbergGutenberg The Gutenberg project is the new Editor Interface for WordPress. The editor improves the process and experience of creating new content, making writing rich content much simpler. It uses ‘blocks’ to add richness rather than shortcodes, custom HTML etc. [https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/](https://wordpress.org/gutenberg/) pluginPlugin A plugin is a piece of software containing a group of functions that can be added to a WordPress website. They can extend functionality or add new features to your WordPress websites. WordPress plugins are written in the PHP programming language and integrate seamlessly with WordPress. These can be free in the WordPress. org Plugin Directory [https://wordpress.org/plugins/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/) or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party.. [@peteringersoll](https://profiles.wordpress.org/peteringersoll/) may work on this as well.

From that, we will continue to work on the idea of the Deputy program with [@Hugh](https://profiles.wordpress.org/hugh/) Lashbrooke, as that is currently still a [#community-team](https://wordpress.slack.com/archives/C037W5S7X) function.  The rest of the process resembles how training has accepted lesson plan proposals through to finished published materials in the past.   [https://make.wordpress.org/training/handbook/getting-started/how-we-work-together/#our-development-workflow](https://make.wordpress.org/training/handbook/getting-started/how-we-work-together/#our-development-workflow) Anyone can submit ideas for content to [https://learn.wordpress.org/contribute/](https://learn.wordpress.org/contribute/). This will help connect folks more specifically into the workflow needed. We have a few FSE Calls for Testing available: [Theme.json](https://make.wordpress.org/test/2021/06/24/call-for-testing-thrive-with-theme-json/) and [5.8RC](https://make.wordpress.org/test/2021/06/30/help-test-wordpress-5-8s-fse-features/). These are great opportunities to see what is coming with the release of WordPress 5.8 on July 20. By doing the calls for testing, we can start auditing Learn for what needs to be revised and documenting on our team [Trello](https://trello.com/b/BsfzszRM/wordpress-training-team-lesson-plan-development) what new content should be created. Last week we had a quick review of our [June](https://make.wordpress.org/training/2021/06/08/june-2021-training-team-sprint/) Sprint. For those of you that are new here, we are using the [Sprint methodology](https://www.scrum.org/resources/what-is-a-sprint-in-scrum) to track our work on a monthly basis. Our work is currently broken down into 4 sections: * Sprint content on Learn goals (Lesson Plans) * Sprint functionality on Learn goals * Sprint team functionality goals * Stakeholders meeting #### 1. Sprint content on Learn goals (Lesson Plans we are working on) These are still being worked on we carry them into July (includes the current state of the lesson plan): * **Sample content **– Theme Unit Test Data, GutenbergGutenberg The Gutenberg project is the new Editor Interface for WordPress.

Thank you to [#marketing](https://make.wordpress.org/training/tag/marketing/) for the thoughtfulness and work put into the release comms for Learn. * The launch for Learn will also include a social media pack.

If you would love to get involved, let them know. [@webcommsat](https://profiles.wordpress.org/webcommsat/) promises cake (virtual of course :-)). One of our last steps on launch is coordinating wth [#meta](https://make.wordpress.org/training/tag/meta/) for some visual organization. * [@coreymckrill](https://profiles.wordpress.org/coreymckrill/) has been working with the Training team to help with the flow and functionality of the site. * [@dufresnesteven](https://profiles.wordpress.org/dufresnesteven/) provided the work done roughing in Jan/Feb this winter.

Note, this is a 14-page file. If [@chetan200891](https://profiles.wordpress.org/chetan200891/) or [@jessecowens](https://profiles.wordpress.org/jessecowens/) can point to any comments that happened around reaching this point, it’d be appreciated. * Before launch, we’d like at least a small portion of that organization to be present. Giving new visitors a bit of visual organization and flow through the site will help. [@evarlese](https://profiles.wordpress.org/evarlese/) and [@courane01](https://profiles.wordpress.org/courane01/) have been providing input into this. If anyone wants to contribute to the conversation, then [@courane01](https://profiles.wordpress.org/courane01/) will be available in the Training slack from 17:00 UTC today. You can comment asynchronously. In terms of what is left before launch, that the team can do, it would be nice to have the following lesson plans created: 1. Joining the Making WP Slack 2. a. The following content might be useful https://github.com/WordPress/contributor- day-handbook/blob/master/*Start%20Here%20-%20General%20Guides/How%20to%20join% 20the%20WordPress.org%20Slack%20instance.md 3.

We ask that you do not hit publish, as we do have a revision process before taking lessons live. ## Standup/Check-In [@courane01](https://profiles.wordpress.org/courane01/) committed to and completed cross-team efforts, monitoring what’s left to be done, onboarding new contributors as well as helping to onboard [@onealtr](https://profiles.wordpress.org/onealtr/) to facilitate the Tuesday meetings in the near future. [@evarlese](https://profiles.wordpress.org/evarlese/) helped with the sprints and subsequently worked on updating/finishing content in lesson plans. Would others like to assist with those lesson plans OR visual organization? Feedback on initial flow and help sorting the material is greatly appreciated. We can loosely organize that here in the channel or [@courane01](https://profiles.wordpress.org/courane01/) can organize a blog post with approximate timeframes. We’d love to see the team share in the stand-ups in an ongoing manner. After launch, we will revisit internal documentation/procedures, our forms and more. ## Open announcements/discussion Please comment on the [proposal to move the Learn Working Group to Training](https://make.wordpress.org/community/2020/12/01/proposal-moving-the-learn-working-group-to-training/) to better organize and unify the work of Learn. As part of the progression, [@evarlese](https://profiles.wordpress.org/evarlese/) has published the collective thoughts of those noted in the footer on Learn WordPress: Blue sky thinking. This is a brainstorm type document on where Learn can go, with a 3-year vision roughly presented. Please leave your feedback. If you have any additional ideas/suggestion or would like to voice support of these thoughts, concerns or other, please do. ## Action items [@courane01](https://profiles.wordpress.org/courane01/) will continue to work on the release prep work, especially getting a minimum version of visual organization. Also, follow up with [@sippis](https://wordpress.slack.com/team/U039G75HC) and @jessecowenson downloadable slide options. [@evarlese](https://profiles.wordpress.org/evarlese/) will focus on helping with visual organization and anything else that may come up before launch.
