Is 2U planning to use the edunext service or build out a different one that’s django based?

• 2U is digging into this and will share out the info when they have it.

Retro of DEPR Breaking Changes Pilot

• https://github.com/openedx/open-edx-proposals/issues/595#issuecomment-2557510925

• What works

  • Having a place to find anything that might break me as an operator.

    • It was smart to use this, at first, at least

  • Defining the expansion/contraction of maintenance is useful for our operators to rely on our platform.

  • Added clarity and expectation to the number of deletions that could happen. Pre-pilot, depr was anxiety-inducing. Pilot has ‘totally changed’ that.

  • Month target, not just release target.

• What doesn’t work

  • Feanil:Going through the DEPR process for every single breaking change is fairly costly, hard to know if something is small and un-used vs big and impactful.

  • Question of “What is a breaking change?”

    • “Removing support for the old way we used to do X” as a DEPR for adding a new way to do something.

  • Sarina: community members who don’t come to this maintenance meeting find the process overwhelming

  • 6-months is supposed to be to give operators time to get ready, but there was confusion about when operators could start doing work and what work they could do.

  • When do we introduce the overhead because we think the overhead is worth it.

  • DEPR became a less-useful notification channel for ops when we started pushing smaller and smaller things through it.

  • Need more clarity on when and how to send changes down which processes, and how they inter-relate: DEPRs, product process, OEPs, ADRs, and any other “breaking change” process that we do or don’t come up with here

Teak Maintenance Priorities

• Codejail Python 3.11?

  • I thought we already supported 3.11 in edx-sandbox? https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/tree/master/requirements/edx-sandbox#releasessumactxt

• React/Paragon Upgrade?
