As mentioned a few weeks ago, the new Contribution Records system is being integrated into our current Drupal.org issues, with the main goal still being the move to GitLab issues.
We have had for a few weeks view-only links pointing to the new system. The moment to start editing that information in the new system, and therefore no longer in the Drupal.org issue itself, is the next step.
When we do the switch, all credit information will be managed in the new system. Maintainers will be able to assign credits, and contributors will be able to set their organization attributions (as employer and/or customer), and save their default values for future attributions.
All issue participants are brought automatically from the Drupal.org issue to the Contribution Record, so you won't need to add contributors twice.
As a maintainer, you'll only need to decide who you give credit to.
Sadiq Khan, Labour's Mayor of London, writes for Byline Times on why the city's haters need to admit that "diversity is a strength to be celebrated, not a weakness to be hidden"
Last month, my beloved dog Buster suddenly became unresponsive. He could barely move, and he refused to eat or drink. After an ultrasound, the vet told us she found an incurable cancerous mass on his spleen. “Take him home and give him all of his favorite treats,” she said, “and then call me tomorrow and we’ll say good-bye.” On the way home, in a pit of abject devastation, I stopped by the Cambridge PetSmart down near Alewife and picked up a spread of special dog treats.
Enter the Dunkin’ Vanilla Glaze Flavor Dog Biscuits, an absurd donut-shaped treat that nobody asked for. Made with vague ingredients and enriched with flavors dogs crave, such as “yogurt” and “natural flavors,” these iced dog biscuits are sprinkled with rainbow jimmies that add a burst of color to the tartar controlling crunch.

Spending some lovely summer days at our summer residence in the Karlskrona archipelago with our youngest daughter and dog. A balm for the soul. .
With the above cautions in mind, we may view each statistical analysis as a thought experiment in a fictional “small world” or “toy example” sharply restricted by its simplifying assumptions. The questions that motivated the study must be translated properly into this fictional world; statistical methods then answer the questions via mathematical deductions from the […]
In the week before the opening of Ro Robertson and Jill McKnight’s exhibitions at the Northern Gallery for Contemporary Art (NGCA), an enormous cargo ship named Van Jaguar arrived at Sunderland Port. Docked across the Wear, in view of the National Glass Centre (NGC), the ship dwarfed the gallery and was an almost-too-perfect coincidence at […]

In 1958, with the publication of the twenty-fifth volume of Econometrica, Trygve Haavelmo assessed the role of econometrics in advancing economics. While he praised its ‘repair work’ and ‘clearing-up work,’ he also found reason for despair: We have found certain general principles which would seem to make good sense. Essentially, these principles are based on […]

More than even a poet, Nietzsche was a prophet—a jaundiced, nihilistic, and cracked prophet, but a prophet nonetheless.
