We are hosting the 4th Community-wide Upgrade Day on the 25th and 26th of September, 2013 (across multiple timezones) to help those of you running older versions of the platform get upgraded to the most stable version of Ushahidi (v2.7.1).

Why should you Upgrade?

This release featured the following fixes:-

Bulk deletions coupled with single report deletion
Login page issues Date picker issues in default theme
Database table prefix installation issues
Some Custom form issues Image upload issues (uploading jpegs, image sizing issues)

Here is the blog post announcement on the v2.7.1 release, as well complete list of the fixes tagged under the 2.7.1 milestone on our github issues page.

Get help, or be a helper!

Sign up on the upgrade day schedule if you need help upgrading, or can help someone in need. Be sure to add in your contact information.

For reference purposes, here are some resources on the upgrade process and migrating to a newer version of Ushahidi.

If you upgrade your deployment or help the community upgrade, please add this to your social media or blogs.

Hope you can join us on Skype and IRC!

Fabulous week ahead, folks!
