  • Generate list of tools needing migration https://grid-deprecation.toolforge.org/
  • Create phabricator task for each tool
  • Examine tools for potential migration paths (ie, webservices, python tools, cron jobs, etc) for each one
  • Categorize tools into a migration path
  • Work with tool authors to plan migration
  • Work the list and migrate or shut down tools still running on the grid
  • Plan grid shutdown
