Welcome to the second D7Security newsletter!

Podcast episode about D7security


I did an episode on the Drupal 7 End-of-Life podcast with Mark and Chris from Chromatic. It was a pleasure to talk with them and you can get a lot of background information on the D7Security group motivation.

New D7Security members


I'm very happy to announce that several more people have stepped up as members of the D7Security group:

  • Gregor Sýkora

If you are interested in continuing security support for a Drupal 7 module please check our members page about how to join!

Drupal 7 Message module support


The Drupal 7 version of the Message module got unsupported on drupal.org and D7Security group took it over. We forked it on Gitlab.com, made a 7.x-1.13 release and marked it as supported in the D7Security group. If you would like to get update notifications about D7Security supported projects please follow the user guide.

d7security.org website


Allison Vorthmann is looking into implementing a design for the d7security.org static website, to provide information and news. Thank you Allison! If you would like to help with the website or any other topic feel free to reach out to us
