Hello,

I’ve used this repository in some of the versions and have made it work up till lilac even.

Is the plan to remove only the repository ? Or some of the code related to it in the platform too will be removed ?

We’re only planning on moving the repository to a new unsupported organization and discontinuing support for it (i.e. no more dependency upgrades/maintenance). If another group in the community is interested in taking ownership of it, we’re happy to turn it over to them.

Since we have passed the acceptance date, I have now moved this ticket into ‘Accepted’.
