I think starting around 0900 UTC on Friday of next week (12th Feb) 
should be possible. We should be done with 3.7.8 before that and can 
afford a bit of downtime then. In case any assistance is needed post the 
migration, we can have folks around the clock to help.

If migration fails for an unforeseen reason, would we be able to 
rollback and maintain status quo?
