For the record, we discussed making Ansible 11 a “LTS” (similar to Ansible 9) because of the changes introduced by Data Tagging in ansible-core 2.19. Long story short: We will provide minor and patch releases for 6 months longer, until Ansible 13 is released.
For people using the Ansible Community Package instead of ansible-core plus selected collections, this might make the decision easier if Ansible 11 is still an option. It will not be EOL once Ansible 12 is released, as originally planned!
