Running tournaments after Flash ends Dec 2020

I use the old BBO interface to run tournaments. My understanding is TDs need to do use BBO v2 because running a tournament uses Flash and BBO v3 has been written without Flash. All the browsers I use which support Flash state they will cease to do so after December 2020.
Does anyone know if BBO is working on migrating the function of running a tournament to BBO v3? And if so, are they likely to complete the work by December 2020?
Thanks in anticipation,
Chris

You can already run a tournament using V3.

The Chat Manager function is a pain to use on V3. At least for me😷

Are there any plans to add Teams Tournaments to V3 by the end of Dec 2020?
