Francesca Marano has an update on the updating of the WordPress updaters! (Yep, you read that right.) Francesca outlines the desired outcomes for this featured project and provides some context:
“The WordPress Core update has proven to be generally reliable, but it doesn’t actually have many tests nor is well documented. There are also some reliability concerns around adding new files and the overall number of changed files…”
Slowly and surely WordPress inches forward with its updating agenda. Up to this point and a 41%+ market share, there have been no major disasters. We may not get to a point quickly where version numbers are a thing of the past, but it is nice to see progress in this area. 📦
