Python Upgrade: https://github.com/openedx/public-engineering/issues/234
Why this is a blocker: Python 3.8 is due to reach its scheduled upstream end-of-life in October 2024 and would no longer receive security updates.
Status as of April 11:
Credentials, course discovery, edx platform - PRs in progress
Some unknowns with edx platform and credentials - in discovery
Ecommerce and enterprise - no PRs in progress
Medium confidence for a ~two-week timeline (April 23)
Contingencies - python upgrades are blocking tutor upgrades and Tutor MFE plugins
UPDATE April 25:
Need reviewers for Credentials PR and course discovery
https://github.com/openedx/course-discovery/pull/4320#issuecomment-2056737242 - fairly urgently needs a reviewer
https://github.com/openedx/course-discovery/pull/4328
Ecommerce PRs that need review
https://github.com/openedx/ecommerce/pull/4147 https://github.com/openedx/ecommerce-worker/pull/247
https://github.com/openedx/ecommerce/pull/4153 https://github.com/openedx/ecommerce-worker/pull/254
Editors are not working in the Unit MFE: https://github.com/openedx/frontend-app-course-authoring/issues/835
Why this is a blocker: Authors can add component blocks to a unit, but they cannot open those component blocks to edit them. This includes the text, problem, video, ORA.
Status as of April 11: In discovery
UPDATE April 25: Fix is identified, PR should merge in next 1-2 daysmerged!
Completing the implementation of Tagging + Search
Why this is a blocker: these are major new authoring features promised for Redwood (although content search will be a “beta” turned off by default)
