Converting to Colossus Ready Theme before Miva 10?

[d2d2d2]

Our current website is built around the Iron and Wool Ready Theme but the image load times are really bogging it down. I know i could implement some fixes to improve load times but I really like the look of Colossus and the lazy load functionality for images and other load time improvements. I was about to request a development site be set up so I could start the process of converting our website to Colossus but I thought I would check here first to enquire if Miva 10 is imminent? I know there are all sorts of functionality improvements planned and I wondered if I should hold out and wait to convert our website? It's just me wearing many hats at our small retail outlet so time spent on these projects takes away from other tasks. I would really like to tackle it just once. Can anyone on the Miva Team chime in with some timing advice for me? Thanks!

Hi Katie,

I see no reason to wait for Miva 10 to get familiar with the new framework. While Miva 10 will bring improvements, those are of a more administrative side. As for when 10 will be available, my best guess would be sometime in 2020.

LOL - releases always seem to come out around the time of the conference
