Phase 3 Media Meeting: February 7, 2024

Date and time: February 7, 2024 at 24:00 UTC
Location: #core-media
Duration: 1:00 hr

The Media Component team is coordinating a meeting with the Editor team and other interested stakeholders to work on planning for the proposed Phase 3 Media Library. There are a few issues already open about the Media Library proposal, but this major development depends on close coordination between the Media and Editor teams to work effectively together.

In a recent Media Component meeting it was suggested that there should be a dedicated meeting time to kick off a round table discussion about some of the opportunities and challenges ahead in the development of Phase 3. The Media Component Maintainers hope to find areas of focus where contributors can lean in to align efforts with folks working on Phase 3.

In previous meetings the team has gone through the backlog of over 600 issues and categorized tickets as phase-3-media-triage for discussion around how Phase 3 could potentially solve these tickets alongside a rebuild of the Media Library. Some of these tickets are an opportunity to change lower level issues like db structure, but the redesign is a good time to address these possibilities.
