We are pleased to announce that PIFT 6.x-2.7 has been released, and is now deployed on Drupal.org. PIFT stands for 'project issue file test', and is the d.o component of Drupal's automated testing infrastructure.
The Drupal Security Team was originally created in 2005. Though we handled security issues before that, we didn't have a team with proper infrastructure until then.
git.drupal.org, drupal.org and our sub-sites have a scheduled maintenance window on Tuesday November 15th from 5PM PST to 7PM PST (UTC-8). Note that this is not a downtime window for drupal.org, but a period of possible instability.
