Plone is a free and open-source CMS open to all. We can all contribute to keep it strong. Each month, we dedicate a day for Tune Up activities, with two stand-up meetings* to discuss projects and tackle tasks, possibly collaborating with others.

In open source, the dependency graph is often deeper than we realize.
