Dropping points pop up into my mind while reviewing the PR's so we don't miss them.

  1. License should be created/moved at the root
  2. License should be bundled in the packaging
  3. How the python upgrade will work
  4. How the common constraints for edx repos will be applied -c https://raw.githubusercontent.com/edx/edx-lint/master/edx_lint/files/common_constraints.txt
  5. catalog-info.yaml should be created at the root
  6. Are we going to move openedx.yaml For example
  7. PACKAGE DATA should be revised for all the xblocks as we are not shifting the packaging strategies for example
  8. i18n should be supported, translations commands in make file is pending to add
  9. Testing of docs is pending
  10. Make sure all the readme content of the xblocks has been moved to the xblocks-extra repository. We should create different read-me files for different blocks in their directories for isolation and easy maintenance.
  11. We should reference the inter block readmes to the main readme file and list the xblocks repo will contain.
  12. We should also make sure all the migrated XBlocks have been marked deprecated and archived before closing this epic.
  13. What about the issues created in the main repositories, should we move them all, I think so.
  14. What about the un-merged PR's, I think as soon as we make xblocks-extra ready, publish it on pypi, we can drop message on the PR's to shift their PR's.
  15. Adding @kdmccormick comment on xblocks-extra:
We should make sure:

Existing sites will be able to uninstall the old packages and install xblocks-extra seamlessly.
There will be documentation explaining that to them.
Both the old repos and xblocks-extra work in Verawood, so that they have a full release to transition.
  1. Write transition/migration notes for the Verawood open edx release
  2. Update xblocks-extra readme to add a transition section [doc for the community; how to shift to xblocks-extra]
  3. Add the archiving xblocks [that are not merged] to the verawood release notes as well.
