We have been working hard to ensure that bugs are fixed and v4 is getting close to a release state. As always we would like to thank all of our contributors who have been helping in this effort, as well as everyone on our community sites (forum, discord etc.) for engaging in conversations, sharing criticism and ideas!…

We are happy to announce that we have released Phalcon 3.4.2.

Just a status update for all of our followers and contributors! As usual, a big thank you to everyone that helps us making Phalcon better!
