edx-platform Python requirements update

Kyle McCormick

• Does anyone have capacity to fix & merge the requirements PR? https://github.com/openedx/edx-platform/pull/34613 . Last general requirements update was Feb 20

  • We’d like someone to grab this as a one-off so we can land all those little updates before Redwood

  • Post-redwood we should figure out a sustainable way to handle these

2U monitoring project

Robert Raposa

2U is busy with a monitoring switchover until end of May

• Product review vs arch review of this

  • robert: people out there use NR, so it is bundled with the platform, so it seems reasonable that DD would be available as well

  • Currently the two will be done together where it makes sense and the Product WG will tag eng folks where it makes sense.

  • (Lot of other discussion I didn’t capture, see recording)

Node 18 upgrade work

• Need to have a retro on this work.

• Node 20 will need to land in Sumac

Settings Files

• ran out of time

Python 3.11 upgrade and translations

• edx-platform is getting close

  • enmerkar-underscore blocked on an external library that hasn’t gotten updates in 8 years.

    • Will need to fork (and fork its dependency too) unless we can confirm that we’re not using it.

    • If you can help with figuring this out please stick around after the call

• PRs open for course-discovery and credentials, if you have context please take a look and see if you can help nudge them forward

• Next week: maintenance priorities for Sumac

  • Python 3.12, React, et al

  • Let us know of other priorities you’re aware of!

  • Adolfo: OEP-65 (composable MFEs) will impact micro-frontends

  • Feanil: Landing automated upgrade PRs in a timley manner
