GWG for our theme session, should we encourage people to make child-themes or to over right other themes directly to make new ones that won't necessarily update?
#
GWG
[chrisaldrich]: Some things require a fork.
#
GWG
For structural changes like we'd need ..

I'm also thinking about what may be easier for beginners from a maintenance perspective.
#
[chrisaldrich]
I think my current 2015 version works reasonably well as a child theme, with only a small handful of files that needed to be forked....

Is tomorrow's WP{ meetup likely to tackle stuff like facepiles in Sempress?
#
GWG
[chrisaldrich]: What version of Post Kinds are you on anyway?
#
GWG
jeremycherfas: That's more CSS, but maybe
#
GWG
To be honest, the stock facepile implementation is on the list for rewrite after the lower level webmention work
#
jeremycherfas
Is it? I would have thought that the necessary CSS would be part of either the plugin or the theme.
#
[chrisaldrich]
sorry GWG, I saw your note late last night, but still playing morning catch up: I'm on Version 3.0.9
#
jeremycherfas
I might drop in and see if I can get any hints.
#
GWG
jeremycherfas: I thought you wanted to improve it?
#
GWG
Placement of the element manually I can cover
#
GWG
[chrisaldrich]: Should I schedule the Upgrade [chrisaldrich] to 3.4 event?
#
GWG
I have an interest in attending
#
GWG
Either way, have some IndieAuth fixes and then another round of webmention work for the 4.x and 5.x branches
#
GWG
Looking at all the things I've done since 3.0.9

GWG, I'm thinking maybe of doing that upgrade sometime in the next month sometime... I keep getting distracted by work and some other projects...
#
GWG
[chrisaldrich]: I am going to be off from the 2nd through the 12th... would be happy to schedule a hack on boffosocko time
#
[chrisaldrich]
I also want to do it sometime soon so i can do a handful of experiments, particularly for a new post kind or two I want to try out...
#
[chrisaldrich]
that might work... if I haven't found time to do it before then... a deadline might help...

I mistakenly turned on notifications for slack updates. My wife borrowed my phone to make a copt order and is annoyed with all the notification popups. LOL! Time to turn them off again.
#
GWG
[Khurt]: Hi [Khurt]'s wife
#
GWG
[chrisaldrich]: Might be slightly behind tomorrow. They pushed a 9am to 9:30 so I might need 10 minutes to get a sandwich
