Cold numbers:

47 issues have been successfully integrated with 14 rejected and 21 delayed. That is 77% success, still under the mean!

Notes:

Special mention about the number of delayed issues this week (21) by the integration team. Along the process we got stuck on various issues (big patches, regressions, imminent releases...) and while we tried hard beyond the official integration days... it was impossible to get more stuff integrated. The team needs to think about all this and be able to sort it out. Apologies!

Already commented in previous rounds... next Monday (September 10th) new minor releases will be available. They include the bug and security fixes, plus some improvements to all supported Moodle versions (2.1.8, 2.2.5 and 2.3.2), and upgrading is always recommended.

About Moodle 1.9.x (under extended support for security issues only - by Catalyst IT), it has been agreed to to stop rolling both weeklies and minor releases if there aren't changes requiring it.

Finally, and related with reliability/connectivity problems happening on moodle.org last week... don't forget to verify your servers are properly configured and tuned. It can be like day and night

Hot topics:

  • MDL-31295 - Implement support for extended submissions dates.
  • MDL-28346 - Problems in backup & restore with missing files.
  • MDL-34945 - Fix WebDAV repo for non admin access.
  • MDL-34997 - Allow shorten urls in the multimedia filter.
  • MDL-34318, MDL-26504 - Proper removal of blog associations and external blog posts.
  • MDL-6424 - Ask for confirmation on block deletion.
  • And lots more in areas like libraries, repositories, themes, assignments, admin...

Warm thanks:

Ciao all, stronk7 smile
