We just published a new blog post in Opensource.com. As we close this year, we want to say Thank you to our OSS contributors and to everyone who works in making our communities a better and safer place to live in.

We had some feature and bug fixes thanks to our OSS contributors for being awesome and making these releases possible. Read all about it here.

We always encourage users to contribute or report bugs related issues to us, to help us serve you better. We had a Ushahidi platform user who contributed via intercom and made us realize we need to look into allowing enough expressiveness to introduce reporters to nuanced questions or situations in their posts.

Find out what happened at Mozilla Festival and how our team participated and other interesting stuff.

We are introducing a new feature to make it easier for open source deployers to identify and solve common problems during the installation process. To achieve this goal, the Ushahidi Platform now bundles an installation helper utility that can be used to gain information about the state of the installation.
