Among our regular meetings, we monitored the Slack channel for 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. Bangkok and an impromptu CD was held after WordCamp Phoenix. Thanks everyone!

@bridgetwillard is reaching out to camps individually and keeping track on a Google Sheet. WC Bangkok was monitored by @bridgetwillard. She will also cover the WC Prague time period. That Google Sheet is here.
About WordPress Press Kit
We also published the Press Kit we’ve been working on since WCUS Contributor Day. Thanks to @andreamiddleton and Community for bringing this to us. @marybaum and @jenblogs4u rocked this with tons of help from @nuanel to make sure it’s translation ready. We edited text originally written for CMS Garden by the German WP Community. You rock, Robert!
Titles and MetaMeta Meta is a term that refers to the inside workings of a group. For us, this is the team that works on internal WordPress sites like WordCamp Central and Make WordPress. Descriptions – Request from Meta
Of note is we also were asked to work with Meta on an SEO project which was completed February 16.
Updating and Maintaining Showcase Page
Marketing was also contacted this week about owning the Showcase Page. @JohnGrohol brought it up to both channels this week. @bridgetwillard and @otto42 are chatting. Thanks @joostdevalk for pinging Marketing.
Reach out to Marketing
Feel free to reach out to me (@gidgey on slack) or @mcdwayne if you have a project for Marketing. We will set up a TrelloTrello Project management system using the concepts of boards and cards to organize tasks in a sane way. This is what the make.wordpress.com/marketing team uses for example: https://trello.com/b/8UGHVBu8/wp-marketing. card and rally our team in Slack.
