November 2020: Developer Appreciation Day (DAD)

As November has given way to December it’s time to reflect on what the past month has brought us. Recapping the evaluation of our most recent contributions to the TYPO3 core, we find some remarkable numbers. You guys are truly amazing!

Last month we had altogether:

• 123 reviews (4 features, 50 bugfixes, 60 tasks)
