> community.sops 1.8.0 ([community.sops/CHANGELOG.md at main · ansible-collections/community.sops · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.sops/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#v1-8-0)) has been released with new features and bugfixes supporting the new SOPS release 3.9.0. This includes detecting the SOPS version to use the new subcommands introduced in 3.9.0, including the `filestatus` subcommand to improve handling of unencrypted files for the vars plugin. When SOPS 3.9.0 is used, this release also fixes a long-standing bug for the `community.sops.sops_encrypt`module.

> Is anyone still using 1.x.y releases of community.crypto? If yes, please comment in the GitHub issue on declaring community.crypto 1.x.y End of Life ([Deprecate community.crypto 1.x.y · Issue #785 · ansible-collections/community.crypto · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible-collections/community.crypto/issues/785)). Version 2.0.0 of the collection was released in November 2021, so we would really like to know if someone is still using the 1.x.y versions.
