Scheduled deployment of release 20

Scheduled deployment of release 20

date:  12/05/2023

Site affected:

https://commission.europa.eu/

A new version of the Europa Web Publishing Platform will be deployed on Thursday 1 June 2023.

This includes switching the DGT-connector from Poetry to the new ePoetry.

This means that existing translation requests will NOT be automatically migrated from Poetry to ePoetry. Therefore, translation requests submitted from a given website before the deployment period must have a deadline of at least two days prior to the planned deployment date.

If the timing is not convenient, please contact europamanagement@ec.europa.eu as soon as possible.

Further information about EWPP release 20 can be found in the dedicated wiki page.

Please note that:

  • On the date of deployment, your website will be unavailable to editors between 30 and 120 minutes.
  • A varnish cache is foreseen to keep the frontend online for visitors.
  • After the deployment, our team will run some manual checks. If any issues are detected, we will roll-back to the previous version.

EWPP release 20 has been already deployed in your acceptance environment; you can test the new features there.

If you detect any issues in acceptance before the release or in (pre-) production after your site has been updated, please report them to europamanagement@ec.europa.eu.
