We have updated the Releases section of project pages on Drupal.org, like Webform. We are phasing out “recommended by the project’s maintainer.” The green/yellow color scheme which had been based on that is now replaced with blue/grey. Stable releases have a blue background; alpha/beta/rc have a grey background.
This simplification results from Drupal’s move to semantic versioning and Composer. Composer has never used the “recommended” label. Drupal itself phased it out while gaining support for semantically-versioned modules and themes with Drupal 8.1. With semantic versioning, project maintainers “recommend” releases by making them stable.
With this design update, we also had an opportunity to use a little bit of Drupal.org’s new brand identity.

With momentum for a strike on Iran building within the Trump White House, Goldberg was apparently summoned to move the neocon message. And he wound up with more access than he could handle. Atlantic Magazine editor-in-chief Jeffrey Goldberg has won the admiration of his Beltway peers for the conduct he displayed after being accidentally invited into a smoke-filled “bomb Yemen” Signal chat with Trump’s national security honchos and top advisors. “Props to Jeffrey Goldberg for his high standards as a professional […]

Four years ago, I published Subtle Tools, a book on the erosion of American democratic norms in the face of what came to be known as the Global War on Terror. Both what had been done in the name of “national security” in response to the 9/11 attacks and how it had been done — through the willing neglect of procedural integrity, the exploitation of all-too-flexible norms, a remarkable disregard for transparency, and a failure to call for accountability of any sort — left the country wide open to even more damaging future abuses of the rule of law. And — lo and behold! — now, that future is all too distinctly here. What happened in the first quarter of... Read more
