When doing the upgrade, please also check if there are updates to the installed plugins and themes.

Does it make sense to handle that before the SSO comes to play?

I think it makes sense to defer that to after the migration, given the plugins and migration path have been tested for 3.x only.

Hm... if 3.x becomes EOL, aren't we locked then?
How much work is testing the path with 4.x, just to be sure we're
heading the right direction?

An EOL doesn't necessarily means it's game over :-) FWIW there are plenty of distros serving old versions and backporting CVE fixes. That said for such a big monolithic front-end software I'd prefer to stick to upstream's EOL schedule. No EOL has been announced for 3.x, and given their previous release schedule I'd say that's unlikely to happen before 4.1 is released.

We're heading in the right direction, one step at the time :-)

Ok, I trust your judgement here then :-)

Done, works fine AFAICT, but I had to disable ‘quick_view’ and ‘progressive_projects_list’ plugins. The former looks dead upstream, for the later we might be able to reactivate again soon: https://github.com/stgeneral/redmine-progressive-projects-list/issues/86 .
