This weekend Jen Lampton will be working with a group of high school students, in the Oakland area, on contributing to Backdrop CMS. In support of these efforts, we have decided to announce an informal Backdrop CMS contribution day. If you are a supporter of the Backdrop project and have been looking for an opportunity to contribute, Saturday would be a great opportunity to jump in and help us with a task, regardless of where you are.
(UPDATE on April 2, 2023 - See more recent post on this topic).
One of our biggest goals for Backdrop is to make sure each and every member of our community has an opportunity to contribute and be heard.

For a community of folks who design and build websites, sometimes we neglect to give our own websites the love and attention they need and deserve. The Backdrop CMS community relies heavily on 4 internal sites:
The Backdrop community is proud to announce the release of version 1.28 of Backdrop CMS! As part of our commitment to deliver the most usable product, "minor" releases come out three times a year, on a regular schedule. This allows site maintainers to know when to expect updates, and they can plan accordingly. (See https://backdropcms.org/releases for more information on this)
The Backdrop CMS community is proud to announce our fifth software release: 1.4.0! The May 15, 2016 release date was right on time, following Backdrop's rolling release cycle. This release of Backdrop includes lots of exciting new features, including two new modules in core: Redirect and Project Installer!
The Backdrop community is proud to announce version 1.18 of Backdrop CMS, which was released on January 15, as scheduled. As part of our commitment to deliver the most usable product, the "minor" releases come out like clockwork, three times a year. This allows site maintainers to know when to expect updates, and they can plan accordingly. (See https://backdropcms.org/releases for more information on this)
The first minor release version delivered on May 15, 2015 and it's full of great features!
It's been 4 months since our the 1.0 release. According to our Roadmap, that means it is time for our first minor version: 1.1.0!
The Best Practices badge is a way for Free/Libre and Open Source Software (FLOSS) projects to show that they follow best practices.
Backdrop 1.17 is here, and contains a handful of new features. Below you'll find a few that we are most excited about sharing with you.
