Content for WordPress 6.4 that needs to be revised or created can be found at https://github.com/WordPress/Learn/issues?q=is%3Aissue+is%3Aopen+label%3A6.4.

@courtney-pk and I are discussing a contributor day event, similar to Docs team, that can assist more team members get involved in revising/creating content for the release. The release date is November 7. Let's aim to get all content we can revised/created and published on release day.

Can we please add something about the first month of the Guide Program? Something like:

Guide Program Update: At the beginning of September, 11 new Training Team contributors were each matched to one of 5 Guides that graciously volunteered their time and expertise to help them along their contribution journey. Since the program is estimated to take 3 weeks, the first participants should have completed the program by now.

We hope these participants have learned all about the Training Team and have been empowered to make their first contributions!

• If you were a new contributor in the Guide Program, we'd love to hear what you have completed for your first contribution, so we can celebrate with you!
• If you were a Guide, feel free to celebrate the folks you were guiding this past month!
