Hello Aubrey

It is indeed true that we have lacked support for Aldryn News & Blog due to 
time restraints on our hand. We are heavily involved into Divio Cloud and 
have recently upgraded the Core Addons to our latest standards 
(https://www.django-cms.org/en/blog/2017/02/01/core-addons/). We are also 
currently working on Django 1.11 support for django CMS 3.4.x 
(https://github.com/divio/django-cms/pull/5932)

I'm sorry that progress on the essential addons (Newsblog, People, FAQ, 
Jobs, Events) are lacking and we most likely will not update them until we 
have introduced 1.11 support. After that we want to upgrade the core addons 
and switch after that our focus to the essential addons.

You are welcome to propose pull request and you can always ping be 
(FinalAngel) to have a second look or ask the corresponding people for help.

Thank You
Angelo
