New GlotPress meetings

In the last months, there has not been a meeting to talk about GlotPress.

We will restart biweekly meetings, in the #glotpress channel of “Making WordPress” Slack. The first meeting will be on Wednesday, October 20th, 2021, at 07:00 UTC. after the PolyGlots meeting. I hope to see you all there with fresh ideas.

GlotPress 3.0 Release Schedule Change

We previously targeted the GlotPress 3.0 release with the following dates:

However that was before some other small project decided to do a 5.0 release on the same day as our beta 😉

To avoid conflicts with that release and the holidays, we’ve decided to move the GlotPress 3.0 release to the new year to make sure we deliver the best release we can.

So, the new dates will be as follows:

Meeting Time Change for DST

Maybe one day we won’t have to do this, but until then we’re updated out meeting time for daylight savings time.

The weekly meeting will now be every Thursday at 17:00 UTC (noon EST).

Meeting Time Change

As of this week we’ll have our GlotPres meeting every Thursday at 16:00 UTC in the #glotpress channel on Slack.

And a quick reminder that it will be changing again in a few weeks for daylight savings time.

Getting to GlotPress 3.0

Work started on GlotPress 3.0 back in July 2017 with a proposal I posted and while the road to a release has been long and winding, our destination is finally in sight.

This post is to reset the 3.0 release schedule and deliver a release to that schedule.  During last weeks (Oct. 11, 2018) office hours, a proposed timeline was agreed upon:

  • December 6th, 2018 – Beta
  • December 13th, 2018 – Release Candidate
  • December 20th, 2018 – Final Release

Which leaves approximately 6 weeks of development time to land the remaining PR’s, which include:

  • Locale Variants (PR #747)
  • Comment Fields (PR #804)
  • CLDR Support (PR #784)
  • Term Filter Scope Options (PR #936)
  • Display Glossary Terms On Preview Rows (PR #932)
  • Fix NL and TAB Character Handling In Originals (PR #928)
  • Add Filter Count For Custom Filters (PR #926)

The current list and status of 3.0 issues and pull requests is available on GitHub and feel free to drop by our Slack channel during our weekly office hours (or any other time) if you have any questions or input to these or anything else.

GlotPress 3.0 will introduce several significant features and we encourage everyone to try out the beta when it is released, especially those that have built plugins or custom themes as both may require changes to be compatible with the release.
