A message is displayed on the classic project board which says that classic board will sunsetting august 23.
Do I migrate myself or do you plan to migrate all the board at once ? Or do I open an issue on dataverse-installations ?

Hmm, I'll probably ask people to migrate it themselves.

Do I need to create a new board for you? I assume there is no "migrate" button to click.

I knew this day would come but I thought we'd get more notice!

@Philip Durbin No need for a new board. There's a button to migrate ("start migration"). My screen capture was incomplete :sweat_smile:

Thx for the hint @Gwenaël Doux - migrated mine as well.

Same, migrated ours as well! Thanks for the info/heads-up! (as I hadn't gone into it for a while) :blush:

The migration will be automatic after August 23. However, as I understand, only some automations (or all?) won't be migrated.

It sounds like the new project gets a new, higher number. Is that right? If so we should update the data in https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-installations (in the spreadsheet and then pull it down as JSON, like usual). /cc @Sherry Lake @Julian Gautier

I created a GitHub issue at https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse-installations/issues/234 about updating the project board URLs for each installation on the Crowdsourced information about Dataverse installations spreadsheet.

I did update ours as well, it's now 67 (used to be 15), I added a comment on our line of the doc :)

I hope these migrations don't break all of Phil's scripts

They will, unfortunately. Druthers only supports the "classic" boards. However, I'm already talking to @Ceilyn Boyd about what we should do in the future. Please stay tuned.

Also, there's still value in maintaining these boards even if my scripts are working. From the issue we can see how many boards the issue has been added to, which is a signal of interest.

Also, if the boards help you folks stay organized with what issues and PRs are important to you, great!
