Thanks to everyone that made it to the first meetup. It was fantastic to get such great WordPress heads together in a room.

The session started with some introductions round the table (the full list of attendees are on the meetup page http://www.meetup.com/wp-hooked/events/66133762 locked to members of the meetup group), then Ken Snyder and Ross Tweedie took the floor to explain their issues, which were the top voted on this site for the session.

The group then split into two, one group discussing Ken’s issue Extending WP’s Data Model and the other Ross’ Find it difficult to see what is happening in plugins, everyone then regrouped to talk about findings and add to each others’ thoughts.

Ken and Ross are due to write up some notes so conversations on each topic can continue on the relevant ideas page.

We also had the chance to have a look at dxw‘s project Whippet, which I will ask them to write up about soon.
