Production work with Drupal 8

Hello everyone,

I just joined the Drupal UG group. Thank you for setting this up.

I have not worked with Drupal for long, just one small website in production.

Anyway, I was seeking advice on if Drupal 8 is a good choice for my next project.

Has anyone here done anything in production with Drupal 8?

Would you advise me to stick to Drupal 7 for now or to go ahead with Drupal 8?

Thanks a lot.

Nelson.

Contributing to Drupal

Hey everyone,

A while back, @benjaminkitya and Mountbatten did a session on getting started with contributing to Drupal.

I remember Reinier, in particular, also pushing this quite hard.

Anyways, at this late juncture in my life, I would like to start contributing to Drupal.

Some of us here have some commits to Drupal core! Wow!

Can we have a session around this topic so newbies like myself can be kickstarted along this noble path?

Anyone interested?
