ProcessWire 3.0.271 – Core updates

[ryan]

Well my personal life news has not been getting better. My Mom had a heart attack, which we believe to be from the stress of my wife leaving (she and my wife were very close). But thankfully, my Mom had good and quick medical attention and is now recovering. 

Despite the news, it was quite a good week for ProcessWire development, with perhaps the most commits we’ve ever had in a week: 41 of them.  This week we solved a large number of core issue reports, including a lot of years-old ones. Lots of improvements have been added to the core as well, plus two PRs from Adrian. 

What I’ve found is that when it’s hard to focus due to so much change on one’s life, solving issue reports is the perfect diversion. Especially with a little AI assistance.

So that’s what I did this week… fixing what can be fixed, taking the focus off of what can’t.

@ryan, this all is such an ordeal you have to go through! And I am sorry if some of my recent postings here were not really helping.

Do know that you're not alone in this. A lot of people all around the world are thinking and caring about you and your family. 

Over the years I am here in the forums my family and my friends got to know about not only ProcessWire but you personally as well. Ryan is not a widely used name here in Russia, so they all know exactly who am I talking about when I call it. The kids know your avatar as they grew up seeing it on my screen like every day. 

So you are an important person in our lives. And of course we all wish you and your family the best. Just know that. It will work out somehow.

Well the good news is that it's been a month since this started and I'm a lot better off than I was. I'm eating more, sleeping more, and can function well enough again, even if still sad. I'm mostly back to work. I'm pretty proud of 41 commits this week. Seems like good momentum, and feeling a lot of confidence and enthusiasm for ProcessWire's future. I really appreciate all of you and your support.

You are loved. Just know that.
