Core Group Update for September 11, 2013

Apparently coreCore Core is the set of software required to run WordPress. The Core Development Team builds WordPress. has seen to elect me, so I’ll be happy to hang with you all for the next few months.

Today, WordPress 3.6.1 was released mostly on schedule, closing up a few nagging security issues and bugs, which you can read about on the codex.

In part due to the release, our chat this week was a touch short.  So, instead of a synopsis, I’ll quote the @nacin:

2:08 PDT
um,
<meeting>
We need to bring down the ticket counts. Highest priority: 50% of all tickets need to be fixed or punted in the next week.
3.6.1 is out.
<3 you all.
</meeting>

So in terms of 3.7, that is indeed the goal for the next week.

I’m a bit behind on what the status of all the separate 3.8 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/ or can be cost-based plugin from a third-party groups is, so my mission for this week is to go through and catch up with each of them, so that I can report relevant details.
