Hi everyone,

Registration is open for an upcoming workshop on Migrating from Fedora 3.x to Fedora 6.0. This workshop is free to attend with limited capacity so please register in advance: https://www.lyrasis.org/Content/Pages/Event-Details.aspx?Eid=C828CD2D-44A8-EB11-80EF-00155D0A2721. This is a technical workshop pitched at an intermediate level. Prior experience with Fedora is preferred, and participants should be comfortable using a Command Line Interface and Docker. The workshop will take place on June 22 at 11am ET.

Fedora 6.0, the next major version of the software, is quickly approaching a production release. Fedora 6.0 includes robust migration tooling and a documented path to get from all previous versions of the software to the latest 6.0 release. This workshop will provide an overview of the Fedora 3.x to 6.0 migration path, including a detailed walkthrough of the migration-utils and fcrepo-migration-validator Participants will have the opportunity to participate in hands-on exercises using these tools to migrate and validate sample Fedora 3.x data to the new Fedora 6.0 and OCFL-compliant format. They will also be able to explore this migrated data in a new Fedora 6.0 instance.

This workshop has been developed as part of the Fedora Migration Paths and Tools project, which has been generously funded by the IMLS (LG-246264-OLS-20).

Please let me know if you have any questions about this workshop.

Regards,

David
