The Five for the Future (“5ftF”) program can help ensure the long term health of WordPress’ contributor pipeline. To make 5ftF as effective as possible, strong participation from 5ftF companies and project-wide understanding of Make Team needs and priorities is required. As such, this discussion will focus on two related topics:
- How we can more readily identify priority needs and opportunities and match them to 5ftF contributors.
- How to incentivize and facilitate further participation to the 5ftF program.
Perspectives needed: Current and aspiring 5ftF participants, active Make Team members interested in welcoming new contributors.
Facilitator: Jeff Paul
