Today I wanted to write an email to AB as a status update on the upgrade I am doing for them. The update has been taking longer than expected, both in terms of the amount of work required and the amount of time I have not been able to spend on it.

To write the email, I wanted to make sure my plan will work. I wanna get their system upgraded to latest LTS version of Ubuntu, 18, Bionic Beaver. I have written a lot of tests while upgrading their old PHP system, but I could not get the test framework to work on Ubuntu 18. Sigh.

So the email that I hoped I could write in an hour has taken 4 hours and still ain’t finished.
