It's only a week now until September. What's the status on the upcoming
catalog changes? Haven't seen any posts about it lately. Is this project
already finished?

And I haven't seen any updates on this page recently either, but I don't
think this will be all, will it?

Hope it will be wrapped up and updated soon, so I can start assessing how to
adapt my store.

It says this change scheduled/made on Oct 1, 2020.
Does that mean change to take place on that date?

Yes, from what I understood the project would be wrapped up this month, and then
there would be a 1 month transition phase until the changes are live.

I don't mind delays, just hope there won't be a whole list of last minute
changes in the last two weeks of September when I'm already adapting my systems.

At this point everything is proceeding as planned. Unfortunately, I wasn't
able to stay as much on top of this as I had anticipated due to unforeseen personal
obligations.

  Is this project already finished?

No, I'm still working on it.

No, that won't be all. I just added 11 items. I believe the rest are primarily
those requiring category definition updates (bricks, plates, tiles, slopes, wedges
and modifications of them). I'll do as much as I can along those lines during
the rest of the month.

  Hope it will be wrapped up and updated soon

It will be completed by the end of the month. However, I think a number of things
(such as clearing out the Friends category) may have to be postponed. Still,
I think we'll have made some progress for sure. I'll update the main
thread with a summary on or before the end of August.

Thanks for the update! I really appreciate that page. If any major things that
will be postponed are at least mentioned in some summary, so I know what to anticipate,
then that's all fine. Looks good to me!
