 ====== VuFind Newsletter: February, 2020 ======
-:!: This document is a draft and still subject to change.
 ===== Highlights / Executive Summary =====
+VuFind 6.1 was released on schedule at the beginning of the month. Since that time, a few bugs have been found and fixed (so a 6.1.1 release will be forthcoming), and work on 7.0 has begun, with several outstanding pull requests being merged to master.
+The work on migrating from Zend Framework to Laminas has reached a point of stability, and should be merged to master following the March Community Call, provided no one objects in the meantime. Once the Laminas update is merged, a pull request will be opened to begin tracking progress on migrating from Zend\Console to Symfony\Console as the mechanism for running command-line utilities.
+The project to improve VuFind's theme has also ramped up, with significant work underway on improving accessibility and adding new view helpers to improve readability and extensibility of templates.
+Finally, several ILS driver improvements have been made, including significant work on making the FOLIO driver fully functional as that project approaches more widespread adoption.
