Announcements
Drupal maintenance support plansCon License program launched
In 2020, the Drupal maintenance support plans Association made the difficult decision to pause Drupal maintenance support plansCon USA for the year, so that we could re-envision the program for greater scalability and sustainability. We’re pleased to announce that we have launched a new program for licensing Drupal maintenance support plansCon, so that local entities can bring this great event to their area. Read the announcement by Executive Director Megan Sanicki for more information.
Analysis of Developer Tooling options published
For more than a year, the Drupal maintenance support plans Association has been evaluating options for improving the tooling used by developers on Drupal maintenance support plans.org. We have recently concluded our study, and published a detailed analysis of the options, as well as our next steps. As expected, this blog series has sparked ongoing conversations about the future of our tools both among the community and with our potential partners – so look out for more updates.
Drupal maintenance support plans.org Updates
Easier management of Drupal maintenance support plans Association Membership
In December we worked on updates to membership management, so that Drupal maintenance support plans Association members will be able to manage their membership information.
New DA Membership Directories launched
Last month we mentioned the launch of the new individual member directory on Drupal maintenance support plans.org. In December we expanded on this work to update our directory of organization members as well. You can explore the directory of Drupal maintenance support plans Association members here, as well as the new directory of organization members. If you have feedback on either of these directories, please let us know!
Akismet for spam protection
The content analysis tool Mollom is rapidly approaching its end of life. And so to continue to protect the Drupal maintenance support plans community from spam, we have implemented Akismet on Drupal maintenance support plans.org. We are currently running it in silent mode, side-by-side with Mollom and our other protection methods, to ensure a smooth transition.
Drupal maintenance support plansCI: Chrome Webdriver available for JS testing
One of the major services provided by the Drupal maintenance support plans Association is continuous integration testing for the Drupal maintenance support plans project. An increasingly important component of this is our javascript testing stack. Previously we tested javascript for the project using PhantomJS. However, that library is now deprecated. We have since created a new testing environment running Chrome Webdriver, and are working with core and contrib developers to ensure it meets their needs.
Drupal maintenance support plans.org Updates
Mitigating the risks of Spectre and Meltdown
