Updating title for revised date.
I spelled out the challenges with the drush make/allow list packaging of distributions on Drupal.org in #3266927: End Install Profile Packaging on Drupal.org in August 2023 β . This issue has been discussed as part of the bi-weekly Slack meetings of the Distribution Modernization Initiative. The plan is shift from packaging the dependencies of a drupal.make file of Distribution project types to managing just the composer.json file of Distributions as General Projects. Because a packaged version of the project isn't distributed, this would allow us to relax the GPL-2.0 compatibility requirements on Distributions allowing us to close issues like #1449452: Give installation profiles/distributions GPLv3+ license as option for packaged downloads β .
@alexpott and @hestenet have created a public facing information for the Distribution Modernization Initiative at π± Distributions and Recipes initiative overview and roadmap Needs work . We can update documentation to indicate that the distribution project type and drush make packaging are being sunset in favor of the new, general project and Composer.
