As Jean-Baptiste said, the Fedora 32 schedule isn't finalized yet, but
the dates should not vary by more than one or two weeks. (The schedule
should be approved by the end of August). I agree with the milestones
outlined in the wiki page. From a Change proposal standpoint, it would
be best to do this as a System-Wide Change proposal (due 2019-01-07),
but I could also make a case for calling it a self-contained change.
But the deadline shouldn't be an issue, as you'll want to get this
started as soon as possible.

If it would be helpful, I'd be happy to help you come up with a
project plan and timeline so we can see how the migration will work. I
can see the migration of the website, for example, being a long item,
simply because of the workload on the CPE team.

Speaking strictly from a project success perspective (as I have no
experience with any translation tooling), we should make a final
decision on the platform very soon or else target Fedora 33.
