Storybook v6.0.0 Release Date

[jetmir-mozenda]

Are there any plans on when Storybook v6.0.0 is anticipated to be released?

#9311 currently has it estimated to July 31st

FYI it was originally targeted for April, and has been slipping as the release grows in scope (and in the context of the pandemic). But the new estimate should give us time to wrap up everything that's currently on the plate--with any luck we'll be pushing those dates FORWARD if we can wrap things up sooner.

@shilman I'm trying to find a migration guide to try out the beta, is that available yet?

Currently working on a "user-friendly" guide but in the meantime this is an exhaustive list of breaking changes: https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook/blob/next/MIGRATION.md#from-version-53x-to-60x

Any updates on the release date? Is tomorrow still the release date for v6.0.0?

Updated to Aug 10! Feeling good about that target. You can see our full set remaining issues here, none of which are hard blockers IMHO: https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook/milestone/15
