 ====== VuFind® Newsletter: August, 2022 ======
-:!: This document is currently a draft and is subject to change.
 ===== Highlights / Executive Summary =====
+August was a relatively quiet month for VuFind® development, between summer holidays reducing available developer time and energy being devoted to preparing for multiple conferences. However, there was still time to fix quite a few bugs and make some minor improvements to test coverage and translations. Time was also invested in beginning to track and prioritize remaining outstanding work for the next major release, 9.0 (and beyond).
+As of this writing, [[https://openlibraryfoundation.org/about/wolfcon/|WOLFcon]] is just a day away, and the [[community:conferences:summit_2022|2022 Virtual VuFind® Summit]] slightly more than a week away. Registration remains open for last-minute participants. These events will allow the project's community to reassess priorities and resources and will inform the planning activities of the Project Management Committee when it resumes its regular meeting schedule in September.
