October 2020: Developer Appreciation Day (DAD)

As October has given way to November 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:

• 57 contributors
• 32 patch authors
• 160 reviews (9 features, 66 bugfixes, 75 tasks)
• 27 documentation improvers
• 22 TYPO3.org contributors (35 issues, 40 merge requests)
