Keynote: State of Plone - Plone 6.2 and Plone 7

Plone release managers Timo Stollenwerk, Maurits van Rees and Víctor Fernández de Alba discuss the current state of Plone 6.2 and give a sneak peek to upcoming Plone 7.

This year’s State of Plone keynote will spotlight Plone 6.2 as an exciting evolution of the platform, introducing powerful new features and refinements that further enhance both the user and editing experience. Plone 6.2 represents another significant milestone in the system’s ongoing maturity and innovation.

Looking ahead, we’ll share an early look at Plone 7 - a bold leap forward. Actively developed throughout 2025, Plone 7 has been shaped by five strategic community-led sprints. With a strong focus on performance, flexibility, and accessibility, it will redefine content editing. A redesigned theming system will make customization more intuitive than ever, and Plone 7 will be the first CMS on the market to offer a fully accessible editing interface - a groundbreaking step toward inclusive digital publishing.
