We can always check the original discussion: [[Vote closed on 2023-01-29] Maintain Ansible 9 for longer than 6 months](http://forum.ansible.com/t/2574) - roadmap update: [Extend Ansible 9 lifecycle to November 2024 by gotmax23 · Pull Request #1023 · ansible/ansible-documentation · GitHub](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-documentation/pull/1023/files)

Ansible 9 would have been EOL around the Ansible 10.0.0 release, so considering it’s still there November 2024 is the extended date.

Does anyone from [@SteeringCommittee](https://forum.ansible.com/groups/steeringcommittee) have preferences whether the last Ansible 9/10 releases should be on November 5th (together with Ansible 11.0.0b1 - feature freeze) or on December 3rd (together with Ansible 11.1.0)?
