Christmas came early this year - TYPO3 v8.5 has been released just now, including some very exciting and promising changes. This so-called sprint release is one further step towards TYPO3 8 LTS, scheduled to be published in April 2017.

A wide range of companies have been contributing in various ways to the TYPO3 project in the past and are still contributing as is common for open source projects. Our whole infrastructure for instance would never have been possible were it not for these contributions. Once in awhile there is a company that goes the extra mile. In This Week we highlight 3 projects that are pretty meaningful to the community. We have a look at maintenance of one of the very first TYPO3 extensions. Besides that we report on more community highlights and events for the new year 2017
