FreePBX 17: Are there any plans to upgrade the image to Freepbx 17

@ugoviti:
Freepbx 17 has been recently announced to be officially released in the following month (cf https://www.freepbx.org/freepbx-17-update/)
My question: Are there any plans to integrate the new FreePBX version into izPBX?
Kind Regards

[ugoviti]

Yes, when FreePBX 17 will be official released, I'll integrate it in the 20.17.x release cycle of izPBX.

Kind Regards

@ugoviti

1. As FreePBX 17 GA has been meanwhile released is there any update/timeline/schedule whether and when to include it in izpbx.
2. As FreePBX 17 officialy switched to Debian as base system do you plan to do so as well?

[ugoviti]

I think I'll switch from Rocky Linux 8 to Debian as well.

A major migration script must be written to seamlessly accomplish this.
