Can we please add a call for new and experienced contributors to join the Guide Program?

[jonathanbossenger]

If possible, can we discuss this issue that was logged recently with regard to Sensei emails? I have disabled the emails for now, but I think it's a good time to start a discussion about what emails Learn WordPress should be sending learners.
