FWIW since it’s my bug that was reference at the beginning[1], I definitely ran simulate_publish on my lilac → nutmeg upgrade, as recommended by you to me here
[1] @arbrandes I was very upset when I saw the email that you unceremoniously closed the bug I took the time to file, without any evidence that it was fixed yet. You should have at least provided the criteria you provided in this thread, in the ticket as it was being closed, so I would have known what was required to re-open it. (I still wouldn’t know the criteria if my thread hadn’t been referenced here for me to come read.) In general after about a year of working with Open edX the distinct impression I’m getting is that bugs filed by the community never get fixed, features that worked before keep breaking, never to re-work (YouTube API, Google Analytics, Anonymous Course access), and the developers keep caring more about adding new features and refactoring code in place just to make themselves happier with the aesthetics, than fixing breakage, if it doesn’t affect the couple commercial vendors. This isn’t quite the straw that broke the camel’s back, yet…but I’m getting very very close to abandoning OEX.
