Sadly, it is time for Palante to say goodbye to worker-owner and best beard owner, Joseph Lacey. Joseph has been with Palante since its founding in 2010 and has been a key part of Palante's growth in the CiviCRM community. We will miss his deadpan humor, rich baritone, and deep knowledge of CiviCRM and SQL. He is leaving Palante for other endeavors and we wish him the best of luck.

Inspired by recent political developments, Palante has prioritized changing the backup infrastructure that we use for ourselves and our clients to support encrypted backups. We chose BorgBackup (https://www.borgbackup.org/), and can now say we fully support encrypted backups to local usb drives and to remote ssh servers for our clients. If the usb backup drive or the remote backup server fell into the wrong hands, your files on those drives would be inaccessible to anyone without the encryption key.

Palante is excited to welcome Kristin Snelling on board as our newest worker! Kristin comes to us after years of working as a web developer, designer, project manager and creative and executive director at Radical Designs, another worker-owned coop dedicated to working with nonprofits; as you might imagine, she's dived into the work and is already providing Drupal, Backdrop and CiviCRM support and development to Palante clients. We're thrilled to be working with Kristin and are excited that Palante's client organizations will benefit from her expertise and experience.

Working with Backdrop and multiple versions of Drupal and trying to use Drush with all of them? Check out this guide I wrote for the Backdrop blog that walks through how to install multiple versions of Drush side-by-side and automatically use the right one for each of your projects.
