[meta] Tasks to deprecate the Contact module

Happy to maintain it in contrib

+1 to step in as co-maintainer

Asked in slack access to the module https://drupal.slack.com/archives/C1BMUQ9U6/p1745586623875969

Filed child 📌 Create 3.x branch to import core module Active

Core's standard recipes have references to the Contact module in addition to the standard profile.

I updated the issue summary. Did the list of tasks come from a template? If so, we should update that also as recipes probably did not exist at the time that list of things to do was generated.

Somewhere after

4. Create the contrib project with a stable release

should there be a step to find all issues in the Core issue queue that relate to the Contact core module, and move them to the contrib project (presumably with a brief comment explaining). Any issues would need fixing in contrib first, with optional backport to the core version.

(I came here from 🐛 Create contact form block Needs work , which is one example)

@jamesoakley, the tasks in this issue include marking the issues for the Contact module as postponed, with a message. The task to move them to the contrib project is part of the tasks to remove the module from core, which is worked on after the 12.x branch is open.

A search of core issue for issues that should be in the 'contact.module' is not done. It is assumed that issues have been triaged correctly.
