OK, let’s get started with the WordPress Community news.
WordPress Community
🧑🏫:skin-tone-2: ··· Be a WordPress Mentor ···
Recap of the Contributor Working Group’s Mentorship Chat on June 15, 2023
As you may know, there is a Global Mentorship Program where some mentors will have a mentee and show how to navigate the WordPress Community.
The pilot will start soon (in 2-3 weeks) so, if you want to be a Mentor or are interested in the program, tell @Harishanker.
:community: ··· Next Generation of WordPress Events ···
The #community-team is pleased to share progress on the Next Generation of WordPress Events. They had 64 ideas, 59 organizers interested in follow-ups, and 8 pilot events confirmed, 6 of which will happen in 2023.
To give you a taste, these events include a Low-cost WordCamp in Leipzig, a WordPress Day aimed at attracting new contributors in Sevilla, and a Community Day for WordPress organizers in Roma. Each event is specially designed with unique objectives and audiences in mind.

Hosting Team Time
:community: ··· Channel Updates ···
You might have already noticed: We changed from #hosting-community to simply #hosting to reflect with our team name. If you find any mentions of #hosting-community let us know so we can update the links and mentions.
🔢 ··· Odd MySQL/MariaDB Data on stats page ···
On the WordPress.org stats page (https://wordpress.org/about/stats/) the data seems incongruent.
@dd32 has made some proposal on how to detect the SQL server version.
:php: ··· Criteria for Removing "Beta Support" from PHP 8.x ···
Proposal: Criteria for Removing “Beta Support” from Each PHP 8+ Version
The scope and goals of this proposal are:
🗓️ ··· Upcoming Hosting Contributor Day ···
Heads up, some events are coming down the pipeline along with some Contributor Days to participate in:
Is anyone going to a WordCamp and wants to lead a Hosting Table?
Great, so just a look at our projects.
Hosting Team Projects
📕 ··· Advanced Administration Handbook ···
Currently, everything pending to do is in the Issues part. A lot of “documentation + enhancement” tickets, and also some “documentation + good first issue” for Contributor Day.
☁️ ··· Host Test Runners ···
The idea behind the distributed hosting tests is to run WordPress' automated test suite across a variety of hosting environments, to help verify that changes on WordPress don't unintentionally affect hosts, and to help hosts be aware of how changes on WordPress or their environments affect how WordPress runs on their services.
If your host isn't included, don't worry, you can still help! You can just follow the instructions on the website to add your host to the database. It's quick and easy, and you'll be helping other WordPress users find the best hosts for their sites. However, if your host has not received reports in the last 25 revisions, we encourage you to check back with them.
NOTE: This last link, maybe we can adapt it and include it into our test Handbook page.
Open Floor
Ok, if nothing else, let’s move on to 🤖 Open Floor. Folks are welcome to bring any topic up for discussion at this time.

📌 Okay, we're out of time for today, let's close out this meeting.
You are welcome to continue the conversation here in the #hosting channel or on Make/Hosting, at any time.
Thank you all for joining and for your contributions to WordPress!
See you at the next Hosting Team weekly meeting! < /meeting >
