Performance Lab Plugin (and other performance plugins)

  • @mukesh27 shared that @westonruter discussed the Auto Sizes feature during WordCamp Asia and opened issue #2449 to outline next steps for further work. @mukesh27 mentioned plans to review the issue and pick it up again when possible, and invited others to contribute in the meantime.
    • @mukesh27 also noted that resolving the sizes issue for the Gallery block would put the feature in a good position to be proposed for WordPress Core.
