Maxime Garcia
04/30/2026, 1:30 PMI would say 9 month + the next spring cleaning
Maxime Garcia
04/30/2026, 1:30 PMthat way we can just batch deprecate things all at once

04/30/2026, 1:41 PMI don't want this to become a pattern, but as we briefly mentioned in the maintainers meeting - I appear to be the only one using this module - happy for the old one to be deleted so the repo is cleaner.

04/30/2026, 1:42 PMin case we want to add dates though, I would keep a separate spreadhseet somewhere for that; not directly write in the module

Cameron Lloyd
04/30/2026, 1:42 PM@Evangelos Karatzas why?
Cameron Lloyd
04/30/2026, 1:43 PMIsn't that just another thing to manage/maintain?

Simon Pearce
04/30/2026, 1:43 PMYeah, just include it in the module

Maxime Garcia
04/30/2026, 1:44 PMWhy document what we're doing
Maxime Garcia
04/30/2026, 1:44 PMCreating a PR so that you can create an issue is a waste of time
Maxime Garcia
04/30/2026, 1:44 PMUnless you don't do it right away, then yeah I document to remember it

04/30/2026, 1:56 PMCould use a similar thing to track deprecations and then see how long they were open for
