GK Blank - Multipurpose starter Joomla! template

Joomla! Volunteers Portal

  1. Attendees: Anja de Crom, Dan Atrill, Serge Billon, Brian Teeman, Herman Peeren, Christiane Maier-Stadtherr, Viviana Menzel

    What did we talk about

    This was a chat meeting meant to encourage people to submit their work to the Magazine website - but nearly everything has submitted already! And this month we have so many articles that some of them have to move to the July issue (because usually people are on holiday in July, this way we have our first content already). Claudia, the Assistant Team Leader, is on holiday so Anja has to prepare and schedule all the articles. This month is also our first issue with our publishing workflow completely in core Joomla. Life's full of exciting adventures! Good thing we have all these awesome authors submitting their articles way before deadline day. 

    The meeting lasted around 40 minutes.

As this happened on 6.2 and 5.4 with the pr's #46879 and #47734, Chrome shot some random Javascript errors about transition problems. This was fixed and tests are running stable now. Currently Microsoft has some docker issues, where layers can't be downloaded during Github Actions, but this is out of our control and it stabilizes in last weeks as well.

    As we were testing only MySQL 8 in our systems tests for pull requests, it was time to also test MySQL 9 regularly. With the pr #47856, we finally got the task done and are now testing the proposed code changes beside MySLQ 8 also on the

    • We set up a Wise EUR account for the Sovereign Tech Fund so we can receive Euro payments via IBAN. This likely triggered the USD warning because the trading address had to be clarified. Wise has since confirmed that everything is correctly set up, but the warning is still visible, so I have asked Wise again for final
