Matt Mullenweg announced the tech and design leads for the three focus areas in 2017. Besides that, Felix Arntz proposed advanced bulk and row actions to make actions with object-to-object relationships possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Matt has announced the three focus areas REST API<\/em>, editor<\/em>, and customizer<\/em> for 2017 in his State of The Word 2016<\/em>. Each of them should have a design and tech lead. The REST API team is going to work on increasing the API usage through the backend. The editor will try to make \u00bbwriting rich posts effortless, and has \u203ablocks\u0090\u0090\u2039\u00ab, Matt writes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The customizer team will help the editor first, and then bring those block functionalities to theme areas, like sidebars. These are the tech and design leads:<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can find more information about that in Matt\u2019s post \u00bbFocus Tech and Design Leads\u00ab<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In his post \u00bbCall for advanced bulk \/ row actions for object-to-object relationships\u00ab Felix Arntz proposed a new design pattern for the list table views<\/a>. By that, it would be possible to create actions with object-to-object relationships, for example adding multiple users to one or more sites from a multisite install. His proposal is to show a field with additional options after the bulk action is selected.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Besides translation stats, the team set its goals for 2017 during the meeting on January 4. The goals for the local teams are the following four (quoted from Petya Raykovska\u2019s post):<\/p>\n\n\n\n The goals for the global team (also quoted from Petya\u2019s post):<\/p>\n\n\n\n More info about the meeting in the post \u00bbNotes from the Polyglots chats on Jan 4th\u00ab by Petya<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\nMisc<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
