Here is a recap of our October 2021 newsletter:
The master branches for Maple, the next Open edX Release, have been prepared and announced! Note that the prepared branches are mainly for community members interested in helping review and build Maple, and not for public consumption. Tutor also recently added support for the master Maple branch.
If you’re a community member interested in helping build Maple and/or Tutor support, please set up Maple using Tutor and report any issues you face to the build/test/release working group on the official Open edX forum.

The Open edX Core Contributor Program has recently confirmed several additional members in its ranks, including additional OpenCraft team members. This brings the current number of Core Contributors to 16, including eight OpenCraft team members!
The Program, which initially focused on technical contributors called code "Committers", has now expanded to also include Non-Technical Contributors who help with platform translations, marketing activities, project management, and more. Open edX Core Contributors earn their designation through committing 20h+/month of active participation in the Open edX community by contributing code or translations to the project, serving on working groups, etc. Our team currently features 7 code Committers, and 1 Non-Technical Contributor.
