Cold numbers:

33 issues have been successfully integrated with 5 rejected and 9 delayed. That's 87% success, exactly our all-time average!

Notes:

  • Next Monday 9th September we'll be releasing Moodle 3.5.8, 3.6.6 and 3.7.2 minor releases. Thanks to everybody that has helped building them.
  • One month and one day (just 4 working weeks!) away from 3.8 code freeze. Time to become (not) stressed. wink
  • Our standard policy is, always, to apply any bug-fix to all the supported version at a given time and sure you know that. But are you aware about our process for requesting a non bug-fix backport.
  • There are some good policy issues that we should be able to decide about, making them part of our lifes. Here there is a interesting/interested (topdown on importance) pick:
    • MDL-55171 : Modify our current (fixed to 2 years / 4 releases) code deprecation policy.
    • MDLSITE-5879 : Fallback to PSR-1/12 when something is not part of/against Moodle own coding rules.
    • MDL-49238 : SQL indentation coding style.
  • There are still 98 issues awaiting peer review... a wise Czech guy I love would say "lalala". tongueout

Hot topics:

  • MDL-66457 : Improve behat xpath nested selectors.
  • MDL-66367 : Added versioning to cached templates.
  • MDL-66551 : Fixed orphaned calendar subscriptions.
  • MDL-63315 : Fix problem with PostgreSQL when persistence is used.
  • And lots more in areas like javascript, user management, languages, themes, administration...

Warm thanks:

  • To NDAs. Cannot say more! big grin
