It's been a busy year and Drupal 8 is fast approaching its end of life, so we've been making a start on the process of upgrading to Drupal 9.
The upgrade process is looking like it's quite mature, with lots of the kinks ironed out, but there are still quite a number of contributed modules needing work. As the deadline gets closer the gap should shrink even more.
Drupal promised that the transition from 8 to 9 would be a 'minor' update. It is when compared to the major upheaval of a Drupal 7 to Drupal 8 upgrade, but it's a bigger jump than from 8.0 to 8.1.
The most disappointing thing is that after all the effort of fixing errors and working around problems, the end result is a site that looks and functions exactly the same!
Well, exactly the same except it is now securely set up for the next 5 years.
