We recently added PreviousNext's name to "A Manifesto for an Open Future," joining 15 other Drupal agency founders and leaders in a public declaration that open source, not closed platforms, is the foundation for the future. Since founding PreviousNext in 2009, we've built our business on that premise, so signing felt less like adopting a new position and more like putting our name to something we've already been doing for 17 years.
Last week, PreviousNext joined forces with fellow Drupal Certified Partners Annex, Morpht and Salsa Digital for a shared booth at the Public Sector Network's Government Innovation Showcase in NSW. We came together to show government agencies what Drupal has to offer, including Drupal CMS, AI, security, and content governance.
Drupal 11.4 is here. Several features landing in this cycle, and across the broader 11.x series, trace back to ideas we explored in contrib first. Worth noting too: Drupal major releases don't introduce new features. The real architectural work happens in the minors, and by the time 12.0 arrives, much of it will already be available, paving the way for the next series of improvements in 12.x.
Here's what we've been working on, and what else is worth knowing about.

Drupal contribution is often considered a direct cost by agency leaders, but PreviousNext has proven that contribution is a key investment in business sustainability and profitability.
For PreviousNext, the decisions to make contribution part of how we work and to become a Drupal Certified Partner (DCP) have paid off many times over, both in terms of business growth and team development.
