This meeting we had an announcement about the new team structure as well as discussions about the future and the team’s purpose.

Team no longer has leads – the team now has respresentatives and it is a flat team structure with loosely defined roles and responsibilities where individuals can contribute in ways that they feel strongly about.

• Theme packages representative – @aristath
• Automation representative – @dingo_d
• Theme review representative @kafleg @poena
• Theme handbook representative – @acalfieri
• Communications representative – @williampatton

The Theme Review Team Members page was updated accordingly.

Team Goal:

There were discussions about what the Theme Review team’s purpose was. It is important to have a single collective goal and vision so that everyone is helping to reach it. A possible statement that felt fitting was:

To ensure best practices are followed in themes and that guidelines exist to prevent bad things being a problem users need to face themselves.

The Plugins team statement was shared as well for inspiration.

Ultimately, we need to decide on a goal and focus our efforts achieving it, so that we can keep the team moving forward.
