Software Update: Drupal 9.2.8

Version 9.2.8 of Drupal has been released. Drupal is a PHP-written, user-friendly and powerful content management platform, with which, for example, websites can be created. It’s simple enough for a novice user, but powerful enough to build a more complex website as well. Drupal includes a content management platform and a development framework. Version 9.2.8 is a so-called bugfix release and contains about thirty improvements.

release notes

This is a patch (bugfix) release of Drupal 9 and is ready for use on production sites. Learn more about Drupal 9† Drupal 9.2.x will receive security coverage until June 2022 when Drupal 9.4.0 is released.

Regardless of which version you choose now, features will only be added to Drupal 9 minor releases, so plan to adopt Drupal 9 as soon as possible so that you can easily update to Drupal 9.2 and later.
