[Workshop] GlotPress features for WordPress translators

GlotPress is the translation management system for WordPress. In this workshop we’ll run through some of the basic GlotPress features and about all the new things that were built since GlotPress became a WordPress plugin. And at the end we’ll also try to take a look into the future and discuss what other features may support translators during their work.
