The monthly core patch (bug fix) release window is this Wednesday, January 6. Drupal 8.0.2 will be released with dozens of fixes for Drupal 8. There will be no Drupal 7 or 6 release this month.
To ensure a reliable release window for the patch release, there will be a Drupal 8.0.x commit freeze from 00:00 to 23:30 UTC on January 6. This is a good time to update your development/staging servers to the latest 8.0.x-dev code and help us catch any regressions in advance. If you do find any regressions, please report them in the issue queue. Thanks!
To see all of the changes since 8.0.1 that will be included in the release, see the 8.0.x commit log.
Other upcoming core release windows after this week include:
- Wednesday, January 20 (security release window)
- Wednesday, February 3 (patch release window)
