As previously discussed in our updated release cycle description, the UT Drupal Kit follows a bi-monthly maintenance release schedule, with releases targeted for the second Tuesday of the month.
The planned maintenance release dates for the first half of the 2018 calendar year will be:
February 13, 2018 – UT Drupal Kit 7.x-2.12
April 10, 2018 – UT Drupal Kit 7.x-2.13
June 12, 2018 – UT Drupal Kit 7.x-2.14
Any further adjustments to this schedule will be announced on this blog and on the UT Drupal users mailing list.
ITS is happy to announce the immediate availability of UT Drupal Kit 2.11, the eleventh maintenance release for our University distribution since the inclusion of the Forty Acres theme and the Page Builder module.
The 2.11 release includes updates to several contrib modules and a new default sans-serif font for the Forty Acres theme. There are no updates to Drupal core or the “Page Builder” custom module.
CONTRIB UPDATES
UT Drupal Kit 2.11 includes updated versions of the following contributed modules:
As a reminder, copies of all patches that have been applied to contrib modules in the UT Drupal Kit distribution are stored in the profiles/utexas/patches directory.

This change will require action for site owners who are using a subtheme of Forty Acres and have made CSS or SASS changes relating to fonts. The special release notes for the 2.11 release include a decision tree for determining whether a given subtheme will require modification, and the actions to take.
Please review the changelog and special release notes thoroughly, and always make backups of your code, files, and database before proceeding with an update!
