After the successful launch of WordPress 6.2, it’s time to start planning for WordPress 6.3, and for WordPress 6.4’s women and non-binary-led release. In preparation, this post includes WordPress 6.3 proposed target dates and a call for its release squad.
The timeline for the second release of 2023 takes into consideration this year’s two remaining flagship events – WordCamp Europe in early June and WordCamp US and the Community Summit in late August. To avoid having major milestones (Beta1, RC1) conflict with these events, this proposal suggests fitting the release process, from Beta1 to the final release, in the ten-week window between both events.
According to the schedule proposed below and the Gutenberg release cadence, WordPress 6.3 would include up to Gutenberg 16.1 for a total of 10 Gutenberg releases.
