From their Email to me:

 Early next year, we hope to be 100% migrated off of the classic platform. 
 [...]  We'd like for you to have the opportunity to upgrade on your own 
 schedule, rather than ours. You can read about the upgrade process at 
 https://sourceforge.net/p/upgrade/ and then press the 'Upgrade' button
 next to your project name.

To me that sounds like 'any time you like so long as it is in the next
3 months'.
