Re: Migrating from v6.x to v7?

 

Hello Stefan,

I've checked latest commits on the openupgrade addons, any new progress is
comming on it? I'm interesting in the accout module migration. Does
somebody started to write migration script and if not could you give tips
where to start, I suppose docs?

Thanks,
Paulius Sladkevičius
