Wikimania like other festivities has perks, benefits, and repercussions. It helps organizers in the Wikimedia movement make better circles, take inspirations back home, and innovate in the free knowledge. It gives green signals to several new initiatives. It helps people to resonate their problems and issues with the challenges that people on the other side might be facing. Repercussions? Does this even make a sense? I believe, yes. Some people do get disconnected afterwards, and this is a loss; a repercussion that requires a good solution. Wikimania Singapore made some sense in responding to this.

Drupal blog: Drupal 10 will be supported until the release of Drupal 12 in mid-late 2026
New major release schedule
Beginning with Drupal 10, a new Drupal major version will be released every two years in even years (2022, 2024, etc.). Each major version will receive active support for about two years, followed by maintenance support and security coverage for about two more years. Each is supported until two more major versions have been released.
This is an example. The exact schedule varies, and will be published on the Drupal core release schedule.
Drupal 11 will be released in 2024
Drupal 11 will be released sometime in 2024. Like Drupal 9.0 and 10.0, Drupal 11.0 has three potential release windows, in June, August, and December. The window used will depend on when the beta requirements are complete. For more information, refer to the Drupal core release schedule.
Drupal 11 alpha development opens this week
Following the release of 10.2.0-beta1, changes to 11.x that diverge from Drupal 10 under the continuous upgrade path will begin. Anyone can get involved in completing the requirements for Drupal 11. Join the #d11readiness channel in the Drupal community Slack.
Maintenance minor versions of Drupal 10
Following the release of Drupal 11.0.0 in 2024, a long-term support phase for Drupal 10 begins, and it will include a new maintenance minor every six months. Each maintenance minor will contain a limited set of changes backported from Drupal 11. For more information, refer to the Drupal core release process overview.
Use a supported PHP version for the best ongoing support
Maintenance minor releases for Drupal 10 will keep adding support for newer PHP versions as they are released. The minimum supported PHP version for Drupal core follows the PHP core team’s support cycle. (Reference: What does it mean for a PHP version to be supported?)
Site owners wishing to take advantage of Drupal 10’s long-term support phase should ensure their platforms always use PHP versions supported by the PHP maintainers.

All that Infocom interpreter code
Jason Scott posted the source code for all the Infocom games in 2019. This was pretty awesome. Everybody who is interested in that stuff cheered, and now it’s part of the common knowledge of Infocom. If you’re researching the history of those games, or want to study their design, you can dig in. So the game source was big news. Infocom’s interpreter source, however, remained obscure. This was the game-playing software for each platform: the Apple 2 interpreter, the Commodore 64 interpreter, and so on. A particular Infocom game release (“Zork 3 for the C64”, say) was a floppy containing the C64 interpreter and the Zork-3 game file. Boot the floppy, the interpreter starts up; it loads the game data and the game begins. The code for the interpreter, however, was never released as open source – until now. Andrew Plotkin posted all of the code on Github, followed later by an additional code dump by David Fillmore.
