I stated on discord my objection:</p>

<p style="color: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0 0 16px;"><strong style="font-weight: 600; margin-top: 0;">opticron:</strong> even if we deprecate it over 2 major versions and provide stubs with warnings (and solutions) in the interim?</p>
<blockquote style="font-size: inherit; color: #4c4b51; padding-top: .5rem; padding-bottom: .5rem; padding-left: 1rem; border-left-color: #dcdcde; border-left-style: solid; margin: .5rem 0; border-width: 0 0 0 4px;">
<p style="color: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0;"><strong style="font-weight: 600; margin-top: 0;">kiwichris</strong>: Yes this is my current view. I am not seeing any advantage other than a localised name changing. Any wrapping script will know the RTEMS version being built already so that will be something like the deployment fragment I posted in <a href="https://gitlab.rtems.org/rtems/tools/rtems-source-builder/-/merge_requests/127" data-reference-type="merge_request" data-original="!127" data-link="false" data-link-reference="false" data-merge-request="983" data-project="7" data-project-path="rtems/tools/rtems-source-builder" data-iid="127" data-container="body" data-placement="top" title="rtems/config: Rename 8 to edge" class="gfm gfm-merge_request">!127 (merged)</a>. You will need equivalent git churn on release of RTEMS I have been publicly active for a number of years now saying the the 5 to 6 BSP buildset change was the last major interface facing RSB churn after I was received strong feedback on the breakage I caused and this is a bigger change</p>

<blockquote dir="auto" style="font-size: inherit; color: #4c4b51; padding-top: .5rem; padding-bottom: .5rem; padding-left: 1rem; border-left-color: #dcdcde; border-left-style: solid; margin: .5rem 0 0; border-width: 0 0 0 4px;" align="initial">
<p style="color: inherit; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0;">It breaks backwards compatibility of tools used to build and integrate RTEMS and for me that is the top priority. To have me agree and approve any related MR it has to build the K26 stack with <code style='font-size: 90%; color: #18171d; word-wrap: break-word; background-color: #ececef; border-radius: .25rem; margin-top: 0; font-weight: inherit; font-family: "GitLab Mono","JetBrains Mono","Menlo","DejaVu Sans Mono","Liberation Mono","Consolas","Ubuntu Mono","Courier New","andale mono","lucida console",monospace; vertical-align: bottom; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-break: keep-all; padding: 2px 4px;'>rtems-deployment</code> <code style='font-size: 90%; color: #18171d; word-wrap: break-word; background-color: #ececef; border-radius: .25rem; font-weight: inherit; font-family: "GitLab Mono","JetBrains Mono","Menlo","DejaVu Sans Mono","Liberation Mono","Consolas","Ubuntu Mono","Courier New","andale mono","lucida console",monospace; vertical-align: bottom; white-space: pre-wrap; overflow-wrap: break-word; word-break: keep-all; padding: 2px 4px;'>HEAD</code> plus build the K26 with the 6.1 RSB so show backward compatibility.</p>
