During this time the official development team expanded to include several talented contributors from the nascent Textpattern community: with Release Candidate 3 [http://thresholdstate.com/ Alex Shiels] and [http://kusor.net/ Pedro Palazón] joined the development team, and [http://www.sencer.de/ Sencer Yurdagül] was brought into the fold as Textpattern's release manager with Release Candidate 4.▼

The 4.
The 4.6.0 release ({{cite web | title = Textpattern CMS 4.6.0 released: it's big | url = https://textpattern.com/weblog/391/textpattern-cms-460-released-it-s-big}}) in September 2016 is one of the most significant releases to-date. Two years in the making, the update from v4.5.7 to v4.6.0 saw almost as many new commits to the code base as there had been in the entire previous project. The result was modernized code, an improved parser, and many new features. Minimum requirements for PHP and MySQL were increased with this release.
