Known issues (as of 2020-06-01)

In order to have an official CiviCRM release, we need to resolve the following issues:

• #7 (closed) How to address civicrm.config.php without running GenCode
• #9 (closed) Easily allow 'vendor' directory not under the webroot
• release#7 (closed) Publish the zetamailcomponents-mail fork on Packagist?
• release#6 (closed) Produce CiviCRM-Drupal8 tarballs
• #43 (closed) Drupal8: composer requires psr/log ~1.0.0, incompatible with psr/log 1.1.0
• #38 (closed) Drupal8: Can't call CRM_Utils_System::url() from CLI with absolute URL - see PR 12152
• #4 (closed) Use civicrm-setup to handle installation
• https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-drupal-8/pull/2 - Generalize version requirements

Not release-critical:

• #42 (closed) Drupal8: Can't upload images via CKEditor/kcfinder
• #35 (closed) Drupal8: CiviCRM checks assume a single-database installation
• #39 (closed) Drupal8: remove Views code from core
• #122 (closed) Drupal9 support

Non-code:

• docs issue 10 Official installation documentation
• infra/ops#885 (closed) Website download link
• infra/ops#886 (closed) c-i testing for Drupal8
• infra/ops#887 (closed) Demo site for Drupal8

This comment includes a good roadmap of the work required for Drupal8: release#6 (comment 10298)

Proposals

• release#8 (closed) Provide installation method for ESR only install / update, available for those partners/individuals/organizations that pay into the ESR program
