T&L is splitting this work into two streams, since parallelization is possible.  Dave Ormsbee and Kyle McCormick from Axim will also contribute to the project with code and reviews, focusing mostly on the backend work. Braden MacDonald from openCraft will also contribute to the project with technical/domain guidance.

Milestone 1:
Discovery

What is left to operationalize course-authoring repo and MFE?
What bugs exist in the current MFE?
Should we consider learning-core instead of blockstore?

Milestone 2a:
Blockstore IDA -> plugin

Switch the site to use plugin
Turn off IDA
Tear down IDA
DEPR IDA

Milestone 3a:
LA MFE uses v2 Editors

Ingress & Egress

Milestone 3b:
Library Import Flow

Library export package Import/Export capability
Possibly a converter from v1 package to v2 library?

Milestone 2b:
Libraries v1->v2

Create Library, Reference, Cleanup commands
Write runbook
Execute runbook locally, on sandbox, on stage (NOT PROD)

Milestone 4a:
UAT

Internal product, eng, UX testing
Missing feature buildout
Bug fixes

Milestone 4b:
Beta

Beta testing in sandbox and/or Stage environments.
Possibly limited beta in prod (no course-side)

Rollout!

Single cutover event with T&L and SRE.
Will require a scheduled Studio downtime window.

Rollout Strategy

The rollout of Library Authoring v2 will be atomic in nature (aka flipping the waffleflag for all users), and will require a scheduled Studio downtime window to ensure the migration of Content Library data is comprehensive.  The rollout date will be heavily communicated with edx.org content authors through all available communication channels.
