Drupal Core News: Seeking Subsystem and Topic Maintainers for Open Positions

The 2025 Annual Maintainer Check-In is now complete, a huge thank you to everyone who responded and to all the maintainers who continue to keep Drupal core moving forward.

As part of this process, we've confirmed that a number of Drupal Core subsystems and topic areas are currently without an active maintainer.

If you've ever thought about stepping into a maintainer role, or co-maintaining alongside others, now is the perfect time to get involved.

Why maintainers matter

Maintainers play a key role in ensuring the quality, stability, and momentum of Drupal core.

Maintainers help shape the direction of their subsystem or topic area, guide contributors as well as triage issues and review merge requests.

You don't need to be a long-time contributor, if you've been active in a related area or are keen to grow your involvement, we'd love to hear from you.

  • Following this, a member of the Core Leadership Team updates the issue with the outcome and adjusts the issue metadata.

Thank you to everyone who contributes as a Drupal maintainer, your work is what keeps Drupal core secure, stable, and evolving.
