===== Highlights / Executive Summary ===== | ===== Highlights / Executive Summary ===== |
| |
| The VuFind® 9.0 release date has been set as April 24, 2023. Most of the March development activity has been focused on updating dependencies, fixing bugs and completing outstanding feature work for the release. Translation is also underway, with several languages already back to "100% translated" status. |
| |
| Another major focus in March was on responding to feedback from the Documentation Survey (and subsequent discussion by the Project Management Committee and in the March Community Call). As a result of all this input, VuFind®'s code style guidelines were modernized to incorporate [[https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-12/|PSR-12]] standards, and all of the code in the project was appropriately updated. Additionally, a review was made of the wiki, and work is underway to update outdated and potentially confusing pages. Finally, discussions have begun about potentially developing a more formal, versioned VuFind® manual to complement the [[https://github.com/vufind-org/learning-vufind-book|Learning VuFind®]] book and the less formal wiki information. |
