In fact, 2.5.x has been out of the community’s daily maintenance for a while. And I think few users are still staying on this branch, this can be told from the PRs and issues reported as really few issues were related to 2.5.x in the past 5-6 months. I think we should announce EOL plan ASAP and 3 months official buffer period would be enough.
