After today's responses from @FSF and Richard Stallman, I wish rms-open-letter.github.io was still accepting signatures. With the current FSF board, things are shaking down how signatories predicted. The whole board needs to go.

We are so excited to host the 3rd edition of Backdrop LIVE starting tomorrow. It's a virtual event for anyone interested in Backdrop CMS. A great chance to explore Backdrop CMS as an upgrade option from #Drupal7 #endoflife. Please join us: events.backdropcms.org

This was a great release! There have been lots of small adjustments and improvements as always. Lots of under-the-hood things to help us make Backdrop better in the future too, like the new Telemetry module and better Layout APIs.

Register for Pantheon's free event: WebOps.21 You'll get to hear our own Nate Lampton speak with Carnegie Mellon University's Greg Gillotti about how they leverage GitLab to increase efficiency. pantheon.io/webops-21

Backdrop LIVE starts a week from tomorrow! It's a great time to get registered and the session schedule is filling up quickly.

On our birthday, we'd like to thank all the wonderful people that keep our community strong and make Backdrop such a wonderful tool to work with. Thanks to everyone that contributes, writes documentation, attends weekly meetings, speaks on our behalf, and donates. #opensource

Backdrop CMS Happy Birthday 🎉 I’m remembering DrupalCorn 2014 where Jen Lampton 🐱💻 🐎⭐ (come find me on bsky) and Nate Lampton gave a keynote about Backdrop CMS. We also had a contrib day! 2014.drupalcorn.org/keynote-jen-la…

Excited for Backdrop LIVE starting Friday! Still time to register and attend, even if it's only for a session or two. This is looking to be our largest Backdrop LIVE event so far!

The C block of #BackdropLIVE starts in 15 minutes with a discussion on next steps for Entity Reference in Backdrop core. We might try out an upgrade from Node and Term References and see how it goes! events.backdropcms.org/discussions/en…

At Backdrop LIVE last month we had a great discussion on branding Backdrop CMS as "Drupal Classic". While that seems unlikely, @StPaulTim wrote up an excellent thought-piece on how Drupal and Backdrop have common ground for helping D7 users: triplo.co/blog/drupal-an…

The RTBC queue is clear and we're ready for the release of Backdrop 1.23.0 tomorrow! 🚀

I've had the last straw with AAAInsurance after unfairly profiling my dog as "vicious" based on race and not behavior or history. Anyone have suggestions for pitbull-friendly home insurance?

Webform.com was my attempt to fund an Open Source project through a SaaS, but changing personal situations and a changing web made it untenable. Although I'm sad, it's time to let it go. ✨
