Requests to extend shutdown timeline for Bullseye deprecation
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

Notification was sent in June and July indicating that Cloud VPS owners should migrate before beginning of August, or request an extension (in phabricator). -- https://wikitech.wikimedia.org/wiki/News/2025_Cloud_VPS_Bullseye_deprecation

August 2026 is here. Groups who are worried that they will not be able to make the 2026-08-31 upstream deprecation deadline should reach out to make sure that cloud-services-team are aware that the projects are maintained and working a plan to accomplish the migration or other replacement within a longer, but still reasonable timeline.

deployment-prep will need more time. T433998: Planning for a plan to migrate Beta Cluster again and T401839: Migrate deployment-prep away from Debian Bullseye to Bookworm/Trixie are places where WMCS folks should be able to see some amount of progress on planing and implementing the migration as that work progresses.
