Here's a recap of our January 2022 newsletter:
After two years of forced hiatus, the long awaited, in-person Open edX Conference is finally back! As recently announced by Open edX, the 2022 conference is scheduled for April 26th-29th, and will be hosted in Lisbon, Portugal. We at OpenCraft are preparing to submit lots of session ideas, and we invite all members of the community to do the same! We'll be sharing more details on the conference in subsequent newsletters. You should also keep an eye out on Open edX's blog for details regarding the event, including keynote speakers, conference presentations, ticket information, workshop details, and more.

Maple, the latest version of Open edX, brings a number of platform improvements and new features. You can read the Release Notes for a list of all changes and new features that will impact the experience of learners, instructors, and all others who use the platform. Our good friend Sarina Canelake at tCRIL also released a series of great blog posts detailing improvements made to key areas of the platform: a feature rundown, mobile native apps improvements, and making the learning micro-frontend the default student LMS experience. The team at OpenCraft is very proud to have contributed to many features on this highly anticipated release. We're also planning to upgrade all our hosted instances to Maple — be sure to do the same! And let us know how we can help you.

The group is always seeking new members who are interested in sharing innovative marketing ideas and supporting the overall marketing of the Open edX project.
