Drupal Core Initiative Meetings Recap - November 04 - November 08, 2019

As our team continues to contribute to the Drupal community, we've been attending a variety of Drupal Core meetings. After each meeting, we put together an overview or recap of key talking points from each discussion. Sometimes recaps are provided after the meetings, in those cases we simply organize those thoughts, with commentary of our own if needed, to have all the recaps in one place. This article breaks down highlights from meetings this past week, November 4th through November 8th.
