What Drupal 7 EOL is, what it means for you, and what your options are

If you’ve ever worked with software, or in software development, you’ve experienced the potential crisis that comes with an End of Life (EOL) announcement. Decisions must be made - do you upgrade, when, how, to what version, do you change software entirely, how much will all of these changes cost?

Drupal 7 and Drupal 8 End of Life

lynette@tag1consulting.com — Tue, 22 Sep 2020 18:23:33 +0000

At DrupalCon Global 2020, Tag 1 Consulting CEO Jeremy Andrews and Managing Director Michael Meyers talked about the upcoming Drupal 7 and Drupal 8 end of life. When a version of Drupal reaches EOL, the Drupal community will no longer work on it or provide free support. Core development stops entirely - no new features are added, no bugs will be fixed. The core issue queues will be locked, you will be prevented from adding anything to Drupal 7 & 8 Core on Drupal.org.

Many of us know the Drupal Association as the primary organizer of the global DrupalCon conference twice a year. But it's less common knowledge that the Drupal Association is actively engaged in Drupal development and maintains some of the most important elements of the Drupal project. This runs across the spectrum of software localizations, version updates, security advisories, dependency metadata, and other "cloud services" like the Drupal CI system that empower developers to keep building on Drupal. With the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, the Drupal Association is in dire financial straits due to losses sustained from DrupalCon North America (one of the largest sources of funding) having to be held as a virtual event this year. As part of the #DrupalCares campaign, we at Tag1 Consulting implore organizations that use Drupal, companies that provide Drupal services, and even individuals who make their living off Drupal development to contribute in some shape or form...
