Billed as a minor release, Backdrop CMS has nevertheless taken a major step forward with the release a short while ago of version 1.2, on schedule and with content as intended, notably the wysiwyg rich-text editor module 'CKEditor' is in core as also are email, link and date fields for ease of site building. There are also numerous very useful enhancements to the system based on feedback from early users and development team members. Well done everyone! My own contribution has been towards the inclusion of the Date module where I have spent many hours working through the code of the fairly complex Drupal module, getting it working in Backdrop ready for our team leader Nate Haug to work his magic and integrate it with core. Now of course my tally of 'contrib modules' is reduced by two, because both the early versions of CKEditor and Date were my responsibility. I have more to work on but my main focus for the next several weeks is going to be delivering Backdrop websites for real clients. Watch this space! This site is now running on Backdrop v1.2
