- I'd appreciate your input on these discussions:
https://github.com/joomla-framework/string/discussions/40
https://github.com/joomla-framework/utilities/discussions/37 - Is it a good idea to deprecate the proxy methods in `joomla-framework/string`? After having heard some opinions, I'm no longer sure about that.
Bug Squad Team (Jacob Waisner)
- JBS has added one member to the team with outreaches to a few more to help expand the focus of the team.
CMS Release Team (Sigrid Gramlinger)
- We had a workshop where we looked into automated (Browser) testing to support RC testing - specially iMacro, Selenium and Codeception. We realised there is a lot of documentation for codeception and that it makes sense to test how we can use it in local environments. The plan is to do that in October and evaluate afterwards. Goal is to motivate more people to use testing.
