I have recently created a related issue on github but didn't receive any response (https://github.com/stephenmcd/mezzanine/issues/1928). Basically Mezzanine compatibility with Django 2 is limited to 2.0 which is no longer supported. Moreover that compatibility is not fully tested.
I need to upgrade a legacy site which is based on Mezzanine 3.4.1 and Django 1.8. Ideally we would like to upgrade to Django 2.2 because it's an LTS version and we could stay on that until April 2022. There are a few options but I'm lacking information to make a good decision: 1. wait until Mezzanine officially supports Django 2.2, but I have no idea when or if that will happen. It seems to me, that at the current pace it won't happen this year. (It's not a negative judgement, I'm very grateful for being able to use a free and mature CMS for many years on so many site!). Do you have any roadmap or even some approximate schedule? 2. fork Mezzanine and upgrade things myself but with a prioritisation based on the need of my site. Hopefully I'd be able to contribute back to the main repo. However I have no idea how much work would be involved? Is it a 2 day job or a 2 week job? Do you have any sense of how much work would is left, which Mezzanine components need to be worked on for 2.2 compatibility? 3. automate the migration of the content to another CMS, that would be more sustainable but would also require quite a lot of development. This is my least favourite option (because I can't think of a better Django-CMS for my particular needs) but at least I can accurately assess the development effort and time-frame. Thanks in advance for any piece of information that could help me and my team better evaluate the situation.
