<p>The Announcement Feed is a great new feature.</p>
<p>However, one thing that could be improved, was some more news. The last of the ten items is almost two years old ... It makes it look like nothing much is happening with Drupal, which is not true ...:</p>
<blockquote><div id="block-bootstrap5-announcementsfeed" class="contextual-region block block-announcements-feed block-announce-block">

<p>In the CiviCRM announcement feed the oldest news item in their feed is from 19 November 2024, three months ago (only first and last linked):</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://civicrm.org/blog/dev-team/civicrm-581-release">CiviCRM 5.81 Release</a></li>
<li>Bringing in the New Year with what NOT to do</li>
<li>PHP 7.4 going end of life, PHP 8.4 ramping up</li>
<li>Announcing CiviCRM 6</li>
<li>CiviCRM on Drupal 7 is Reaching End of Life: What Are Your Next Steps?</li>
<li>CiviCRM Support for D7</li>
<li>CiviCRM 5.80 Release</li>
<li>SYSTOPIA Extension of the Month #12: Mailbox Mailing</li>

<h4 id="summary-steps-reproduce">Steps to reproduce</h4>
<p>Check the feed, and see that item number ten is close to two years old.</p>
<h3 id="summary-proposed-resolution">Proposed resolution</h3>
<p>Post some more announcements. If necessary, relax the requirements to get included, to make it more relevant for the users.</p>
<p>Frequency proposal: Like CiviCRM, maybe aim for adding one news item per week? It's not too little, nor too much.</p>
<p>Include more of these types of news:</p>
<ul>
<li>Drupal camps</li>
<li>More articles from <a href="https://www.drupal.org/news">https://www.drupal.org/news</a></li>
<li>Minor releases of the current official release, such as <a href="https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/releases/10.4.1">Drupal 10.4.1</a>, or at least security releases?</li>
</ul>
