Important news

  1. Drupal 8.x is now 8.0.x - new branch: https://groups.drupal.org/node/436178 - be sure to checkout the new branch in your repository!
  2. Migrate module automated test failures - policy change: https://groups.drupal.org/node/436203 - “The Drupal 8 committers have slightly changed the policy regarding automated test failures as we move toward release of 8.0.0. The traditional policy is that any proposed core patch must pass all automated tests at commit time. We are amending that slightly such that patches which solve Criticals, but fail tests in a non-essential component, are allowed to proceed. For now, the only non-essential component is the Migrate framework. As announced previously, the Migrate framework is not release blocking for 8.0.0 so it should not hold back these Critical patches.”
