Feedback

How did the migration process compare to your expectations? How could the tools, documentation, etc. be improved? Was the upgration pilot a useful exercise?

Future Plans

The migration process has shown we have a lot to learn before we can start using Fedora 4. The migration utils are easy to use but without some knowledge of Fedora 4 it is difficult to understand what is going wrong if you come across errors. The Fedora 4 web interface is very different to the Fedora 3 interface and takes some getting used to. It has been useful to be involved in the migration testing as it has increased our understanding of Fedora 4 and some of the opportunities it will give us in the future. It has also been useful to test the migration tools with a custom Fedora 3 repository like ourselves to see what issues we will come across in the future.

Future Plans

We will continue to work on migrating the content we have selected to thoroughly test the migration utils and also increase our knowledge of Fedora 4.What are your plans for continuing to migrate to Fedora 4? When do you expect to be in production?
