[UCIMC-Tech] Fwd: [Drupal.org] ucimc.org is using Drupal 6.28 which has security vulnerabilities

[arthousefarm at gmail.com]

Our website is about to be unsupported - do you know when?

We want to migrate to WordPress and have a big of grant funding to support this (I was hoping to find matching funds).

Suggestions?

> Hi Danielle,
> 
> I noticed that Urbana-Champaign Independent Media Center website is using Drupal 6.28. Your current version is now outdated and you have missed 3 security updates released from Drupal security team. Since the release is designated as a security update, you should apply the update as soon as you can. 
> 
> Whether or not you upgrade to Drupal 7 is highly an individual decision. But with Drupal 8 release coming closer and closer, upgrading is necessary because Drupal 6 will be unsupported by Core and Security teams. 
> 
> Updating to higher version of Drupal is beneficial not only because it fixes the bugs and takes care of critical security updates but it also helps in using the new and powerful features of upgraded version.
> 
> You can find the upgrade instructions here - https://drupal.org/upgrade/ if you want to do it yourself. Alternatively, I can do a free evaluation of your site and let you know about different security updates that need to done in Drupal core and contrib modules.
> 
> Please reply to this email if you want a free evaluation.
