Sorry to run out of time, the API versioning stuff can all be found here:

Really good look at APIs without getting hung up on the "rules." Too bad he ran out of time.
A great new way think about growing as a developer.
good talk about this program but I would have liked some way that we could do something in our community. most of the questions reflected that.
Didn't hit a few of the points that are some of our most significant challenges with WordPress: migrating databases between environments, and keeping uploads folders in-sync on multiple load-balanced servers. Some of the enthusiasm was a bit marketing-y. But did point to a lot of great tools we'll be evaluating.
Awesome talk. Excellent pitfalls I've run into myself, tips on how iterators work internally, and how to apply OOP principles to use them effectively. Would love to see this talk expanded or spun off into another talk on generators, coroutines, and more advanced applications of those PHP features.
Very helpful best-practices for APIs. Definitely want to check out the book now. Most of our APIs are trivial and tightly-coupled to frontends for the same system. But we will apply these to any APIs we set up that are used more broadly.
We just use logging trivially, and don't do any stats. This was a great introduction to some of the benefits we could get by doing more with them, as well as making first steps very approachable. Will definitely be digging into that info with my team.
Very, very well done! I appreciate the effort and the clean humor through the talk. Thank you!
