Drupal 6 no longer supported - Migration required

Ben Cooksley
Hi all,

As was inevitable, Drupal upstream have now ceased support for Drupal 6.
This means that our Drupal 6 sites now represent a security threat,
and may be insecure against future vulnerabilities.

I would therefore like to migrate or otherwise sort out our various
Drupal 6 installations fairly quickly.

In terms of Akademy 2010 and Akademy 2012: I think the content of this
(along with the Akademy 2013 Drupal 7 instance) should be all migrated
into the overall Akademy Drupal 7 instance. We can take a backup of
the site contents (files, database) should we need to look into them
in the future, but considering how long ago that was, I suspect we
probably won't need to do that. Do we know of anyone who could do
this?

For discover.kde.org, I think this one can simply be archived. It
hasn't been touched in a long time.

That leaves the following application Drupals:

- kdevelop.org
- digikam.org
- amarok.kde.org

All 3 are using custom themes, which will make things more difficult
and may have semi-complicated module migration requirements. I'd like
to hear back from you folks on which parts of your sites you are
actually using, so we can disable the modules which are not needed.

We'll need your assistance developers, in migrating those three sites.

Thanks,
Ben Cooksley

Hi Gilles,

It needs to be completed as soon as possible.
Due to lack of time on Sysadmins part, you'll need to provide the
necessary updates for custom things like the theme.

It's a little bit hot to do it while GSoC students selection. It's acceptable if it's done just after the selection ?

Hi Gilles,

Ideally it needs to be done as soon as possible - especially in
regards to themes as you may need to find someone to port it to Drupal
7/8.
I don't think Digikam.org uses any custom modules, so hopefully as
long as they're all commonly used modules the migration shouldn't be
an issue there.

You are right, as i know, there is no custom module used in digiKam.org. Only customized CSS is used.

*Nod*. Please advise if you need anything with regards to the code,
etc. used in the Drupal theme for getting it rewritten for D7 or D8.

Well, 
to be honest, this customization have be done a long time ago by a contributor, and i don't have any details about it.

Perhaps it's time to rewrite all this customization now.... The problem is that my free time is not extensible to infinite (:-)))...

That's an option, You could always use one of the off the shelf Drupal
themes of course.
