For now, let's see if we can get ruby-commonmarker migrated, then we can look at another rust-comrak update. >> Do you have plans to do this update?

I noted this in a previous thread last month, but I'd like to do a Rails transition before the release of Forky, yes. I was wondering about Redmine, it's good to know that we're good there.
