 ====== VuFind® Newsletter: May, 2023 ======
-:!: This document is a draft and still subject to change.
 ===== Highlights / Executive Summary =====
+Following the release of VuFind® 9.0 in the previous month, May's development was split between fixing minor bugs found in the release and beginning work on 9.1. Noteworthy changes include raising the minimum PHP version requirement to 8.0 (since 7.x has hit end of life), adding support for purging historical loans (where supported by the ILS driver), and a number of updates to dependencies and development tools.
+The Project Management Committee continued to work on issues of accessibility, documentation, internationalization, fundraising and Summit planning.
+The 2023 VuFind® Summit will be held as part of WOLFcon 2023. The [[community:conferences:summit_2023:cfp|call for papers]] is currently open until June 5 and discounted [[https://www.eventbrite.com/e/wolfcon-2023-registration-615995347667?aff=Website|early bird registration]] is available until June 18. We hope to see you in person in Chicago, but free online participation will also be possible for those unable to travel. Please join us!
