Cold numbers:
39 issues have been successfully integrated with 7 rejected and 0 delayed. That is 84.78% success, not bad at all!
Notes:
- There are 32 issues awaiting peer-review, that's only 5 down from last week. And freeze is coming!
- There are only 2 remaining opportunities of getting your improvements and new features added to Moodle 2.9 (next and next-next weeks), after that, we'll be only accepting bug fixes until release, with everything else held, be warned.
- Since some days ago we are running acceptance tests (Behat) in parallel mode in our testing infrastructure. That's a huge step (thanks Rajesh!) from previous non-parallel runs and, once fully stabilized, sets the base for future improvements, stay tuned.
- We are actively discussing alternative ways to handle security issues internally, aiming to better handling of them (integration and testing) within our processes and also better/on time notifications to the community. Still considering different options and their impact.
Hot topics:
- MDL-47002, MDL-47003...: Better handling of imported content in atto html editor.
- MDL-28526: Glossary to preserve attachments and images over export/import operations.
- MDL-49543: Badges criteria now support a custom description field.
- MDL-45619: To be able to uninstall repositories.
- And lots more in areas like web services, quizzes, ajax, themes, ims-cp resources...
Warm thanks:
- To Eric Merrill, from Oakland University. For all his awesome contributions in business-critical areas like caching stores, plugins, html editors... and because I really like that avatar, man. Many thanks!
