This will organize and document work that we are already doing around research plugins and outreach to third-party software providers, and make it clear who new contributors can contact to help out in these areas. This work doesn’t fit well under any of the existing teams.
This will also provide a path forward for bringing research plugins under the ClassicPress organization as officially-supported plugins, with a clear ownership structure and consistent values (free and open software with no upgrade nags or other user annoyances).
Committee; please cast your vote below.
Any discussions outside of this specific proposal should be started with a new linked thread.
Just to add to this, I think @1stepforward should be the team lead of the Ecosystem Team as this is essentially what he has been doing so far with Classic Commerce and Classic SEO
This has my support as well. Tim has been doing an excellent job with both technical outreach to other vendors/providers and research plugins already, and this isn’t really something that fits into any of our existing teams.
