Yesterday’s door was looking back at the launch of Drupal CMS 1.0, and today we look forward to CMS 2.0, which currently has an Alpha release available.
It is expected to launch early in 2026, though I suspect it won’t make it for Drupal’s 25th birthday.
We’re taking you back to the launch party, which was a live event held on the 24th birthday of Drupal.

At DrupalCon Vienna Matt Glaman of Acquia and Mike Herchel of Dripyard talked about how to get contributions from the initial idea stage, and bring them to fruition.
Rachel says:
Building a Drupal community isn’t easy, events like DrupalCon and DrupalCamps help hold communities together, so when events like Covid happen, it can be hard to keep things going, and to rebuild afterwards.
