D10 preview environments
We will provide a D10 preview environment and an opportunity to test the functionality of your D10 project. Open for a short time, this is a great opportunity to test your D10 project and identify and fix any issues.
D9 to D10 automated upgrades
We’re aiming for all D9 sites to be upgraded to D10 between July-September 2023. Like our D8 to D9 upgrade, this will be a 3-step process:
- We will provide you a D10 environment,
- You will have a 2-week window to complete a final review of your website, and
- The site will be switched from D9-D10. During this 2-week period, there is no requirement for a content freeze on your website.
Path to D10 upgrade information sessions
We will be holding regular D10 online sessions to keep you informed of the process and provide opportunities for questions.
Recordings will be available from the Drupal 10 page on the GovCMS website. To access recordings, you must be a member of the GovCMS GovTEAMS Community. You can register for a GovTEAMS OFFICIAL account if you are a current Australian Public Service staff member or contractor.
