It is always great to hang out and work with members of other teams, and we’re looking forward to see all of you again at the sprints next year. **New Team Member** ------------------- In July, we welcomed Steffen Hastädt as new member in our team. Steffen is a seasoned TYPO3 developer working for [RTP GmbH](https://www.rtp.ch), Zürich. He is already familiar with our server stack, and we’re happy to have him with us. **Achievements** ---------------- Among many other things, we worked on and finished the following projects during remote days and community sprints: - **Streamlined the GDPR process**, once again. Meanwhile, your accounts in most systems will be removed automatically should you decide to terminate your [my.typo3.org](http://my.typo3.org/) account. - **Improved our web server configuration** to make our infrastructure more resilient regarding massive bot requests. - **All servers have been migrated** to the latest Debian version 12 (beside one where we have to wait for an update). - **Throughout the year, we installed numerous updates** on our systems, such as Gerrit, GitLab, HedgeDoc, Mailcow, Matomo, OTOBO, and Redmine. **Meet, Join, and Follow Us** ----------------------------- During the year, we see each other in monthly video calls to coordinate our tasks. These meetings are public, and everyone is welcome to join us for questions or even just to say hello. Every few months, we meet in person at one of the community sprints or other TYPO3 events. We aim for open communication and processes. You can follow our work in [GitLab](https://git.typo3.org/groups/server/-/activity), on our [Status Page](https://status.typo3.org/), and on [Mastodon](https://typo3.social/@server). ![](https://news.typo3.com/typo3temp/assets/t3g/blog/gravatar/743560216a44ea971f3d9278e3bcfe45.jpeg) About the Author [Andri Steiner](https://news.typo3.com/article/author/andri-steiner) [More posts by this author](https://news.typo3.com/article/author/andri-steiner) Additional contributors ----------------------- - Copy Editor - ![](https://news.typo3.com/typo3temp/assets/t3g/blog/gravatar/49aa12815610e985a3a94122712538f2.jpeg)Felicity Brand - Publisher - ![](https://news.typo3.com/typo3temp/assets/t3g/blog/gravatar/d2606120ccc43c7846fe40337be2bc1e.png)Mathias Bolt Lesniak
