Hi Stanislav, Thank you for your engagement to upgrade Weblate! We don't have any Leap release at the moment. So we would not have any problem with the downtime. But it would be great to publish the exact time before on this mailing list. ;) I have one question about group permissions: Is that a group permission per language or anything specific with general access? Best regards, Sarah

Hi.

I just finished and tested the upgrade procedure of weblate.

https://l10n.opensuse.org currently uses weblate-2.18 on openSUSE Leap 42.3.

After the upgrade, it will use weblate-3.2.2 on openSUSE Leap 15.0.

Database migration will be needed, so the server has to be offline for some time. The planned outage should not exceed 8 hours.

I am proposing to perform the upgrade tomorrow Dec 14, starting at about 11:00 GMT.

There are many changes in the new version. Most important are:

- Improved review process.

- Permission system was refactored.

There is a planned end of support: The new permission system dropped support for individual permissions. Only group permissions will be supported. I hope that nobody will be affected by that.

It is always hard to guess. There is a guess "when no problems appear". But even if the upgrade is always tested on the staging machine, things don't go always as expected.

That sounds like you have to test with a "fresh" VM. Perhaps you can receive the same behavior if you will ask after a snapshot of the live system for test upgrades. In addition, you have to use a separate database with the database dump of the live system (like now). Then the ip address of the snapshot vm and the database configuration have to be changed. After that you should be able to reproduce all better.

I have one question about group permissions: Is that a group permission per language or anything specific with general access?

Group permission existed before. Now it is the main way to get permissions. Individual permissions were removed.

I have to study details of the new permission model, so we can start the limited access for languages that have a working translation community.

Thank you for your engagement! We are living with people as you. Merry Christmas! Best regards, Sarah
