Well - not necessarily skip updates - but as we are using github and
submodules, we're basically not using "releases" - but merge the
fixes.

But the main point as you all figured out is: We're currently running
2.4.x codeline.

Well I did try it out a while ago as well to see how much effort it would be
https://ss3.libreoffice.org/get-involved is for example served using
silverstripe 3 :-)

(no DNS-entry, so you have to add 78.46.154.110 ss3.libreoffice.org to
/etc/hosts or equivalent)

However there are tweaks needed to some pages, (for example the
widgets on the homepage trigger errors).  While these are easy to fix,
the biggest problem is the workflow module we're using that hasn't
been migrated yet. The other modules are not that big of a deal.

Oh, you should not have discarded it completely :-)

Migrating the current theme is rather easy - but of course I'd like to
see a new theme for a relaunch when switching to SS 3

Indeed that is the hard thing here - getting input from vairous
parties regarding what they actually expect from the new design.

Indeed, you're welcome :-)

but forum module is only used for convenience / to have people create
their accounts themselves - so forum module is not crucial.

State is that a lot is working already /can be tweaked with little effort.
