A quick look at the kanban > doesn't give me any understanding :) Each of the issues on the kanban board is a proposal to make a backwards incompatible change. I have not written any summary other than to gather those together in a kanban. Many of them are removing code that I don't believe is used (but that will have an effect on the REST API, or will require admin intervention to upgrade). Bodhi has many types of users, from release engineers, to admins, to packagers, to integrators, to testers. Here are some of the proposals I'd draw the most attention to: * Drop the update title (a list of NVRs that is very buggy) as the Update's primary key, and instead use the update alias (the string that looks like FEDORA-2018-abcde) as the only identifier[0]. * Drop Python 2 support in the client[1] (we will need some dependencies to move to Python 3 to bring this to Rawhide.) * Switch to OpenID Connect[2], which will require backwards incompatible changes in the authentication API and possibly in the Python bindings to the REST API[2]. * Drop anonymous comments[3] - you can't ask follow up questions because anonymous users don't get e-mails. It's not a very useful feature. * Change how the edit APIs work so that a diff is sent rather than the entire set of fields[4]. * Remove critpath karma[5].
