Plone Tune-Up Days Recap 3 (Feb - May 2024)
Plone Tune-Up Days are running every third Friday of the month, and here is a next short summary of the progress that has been made.
Plone Tune-Up is about working on Plone issues, together, online. Programming, documentation, marketing, infrastructure, learning Plone, content creation, discussions - all can be done during the day, whenever it suits you in your specific time zone. Below is a summary of some of the things that were done and a more complete list is available also.
Plone Tune-Up February 2024
The seventh Tune-Up took place on 16 February 2024 , and seven (how apt) people worked on the following:
- a proposal was written for Google Season of Docs to apply for a grant to hire a professional technical writer and provide stipends to participants who reveiw pull requests and work with the technical writer
- there was a discussion to update plone.org and the event bot in Discord and the Discord recurring event was updated to CET timezone all day
- worked on the 2FA plugins for Plone & Volto and created some basic documentation
- organized open issues into a spreadsheet

The 15 March 2024 Tune-Up had 6 participants, including some new faces. Work included:
- Volto core issues
- World Plone Day prep
- Tweaks to plone.org News and events pages to make items easier to find
Plone Tune-Up April 2024
The 19 April 2024 Tune-Up was just after World Plone Day 2024 so that was the main focus of the day. Attendance was understandably quite low after a busy Plone week. Work was done on:
- putting together some WPD 2024 YouTube stats
- looking at Buffer social media scheduling app that is now being used instead of Hootesuite. It worked well for scheduling messages for WPD.
Plone Tune-Up May 2024
17 May 2024 had more participants again (5), and this Tune-Up Day took place during the Beethoven sprint. People worked on:
- WPD2024 videos - checking them for language accessibility
- reviving the Plone newsletter
- discussing fundraising options
- code was reviewed including fullcalendar
- lots of other work during the Beethoven Sprint
