Problem/Motivation

Drupal 9 support will end in November 2023 β†’
November 1, 2023 (UTC) Drupal 9 reaches end-of-life due to its dependency on Symfony 4.
Reference: Symfony 4.4 release checker.
What to do about Drupal 9's end of life in November 2023
  • The 9.0.x branch works well with Drupal ~9.0
  • But number of modules are deprecated in Drupal ~10.1.0
  • The Drupal 10 core has other more needed patches

Proposed resolution

  • Revamp the 9.1.x branch only for Drupal ~10.1.0.
  • Copy and update the 9.1.x branch with latest changes from the 9.0.x branch.
  • Update drupal/core to ~10.1.0 in the .info.yml and composer.josn file
  • Update used modules to match with the latest used in the 10.0.x
  • Remove deprecated modules to match with the latest used in the 10.0.x
