Description
Working plan, proposed here - https://github.com/openedx/openedx-platform/issues/37931 :
- Phase 0 - migration is available - Ulmo
- Warnings added in Verawood
- Phase 1 - legacy libraries cannot be viewed or edited - Willow
- new legacy content cannot be linked
- existing legacy libraries can be migrated
- existing links still work, can still be migrated to V2
- Phase 2 - legacy libraries are deleted - "Y" release
- legacy libraries can no longer be migrated
- existing legacy library content in courses still works, but it is not a link any more, just static content
To explore: Automatic migration in during upgrade from Xylon to "Y" to prevent data loss?
