Update: We have completed our deployment window with Drupal.org's new login flow successfully enabled.

Please contact help@drupal.org if you encounter any issues that can be resolved with the information below.

The Drupal Association engineering team is preparing to switch over to our new single sign-on solution for user login. This is an important step in our work to upgrade Drupal.org, and in the future will give you the ability to use your Drupal.org identity in new ways. 

This switchover was previously scheduled for Thursday, 25 July, but unfortunately we had to roll-back that attempt. After pausing for a week to avoid disrupting the Drupal 11 release window, we are ready to try again.

The switch-over is scheduled for:

  • Thursday 8 August - from 9am to 1pm Pacific (16:00-20:00 UTC).

As mobs attempt to burn down hotels housing asylum seekers, don’t forget Nigel Farage led a campaign to publicise these hotels. He recorded himself turning up at a series of them in 2020 and asked his followers to identify more hotels, saying some residents “might be ISIS”.

Then let’s move backwards:

First there’s been a lot of anti-Muslim propaganda thru the years, including entire TV and movie eras where the most common villains.

Second is a sustained right wing campaign complaining about demographic replacement and stating that immigrants are more likely be criminals than natives.
