Drupal 9 Porting Weekend May 22-23, 2020
"Join the Drupal Community in this worldwide event focusing on Drupal 9 stability and adoption across contributed projects. Over 1600 projects are already Drupal 9 compatible a month before Drupal 9's release which is unprecedented. However, there are still thousands that only need very small changes and a release made."

Start a Drupal 9 Readiness to-Do List Using Upgrade Status
"Upgrade Status generates a report that serves a sort of checklist to help you determine whether or not your site is ready to be upgraded to Drupal 9. It packs a lot of useful information into a single report. And it's worth taking the time to install it on a copy of your Drupal 8 site and seeing what it has to say."
