Hi everyone,

We have landed changes deprecating classic drivers, and we may remove classic drivers as early as end of Rocky. I would like to ask those who maintain drivers for ironic a few favors:

1. We have landed a database migration [1] to change nodes from classic drivers to hardware types automatically. Please check the mapping [2] for your drivers for correctness.

2. Please update your documentation pages to primarily use hardware types. You're free to still mention classic drivers or remove the information about them completely.

3. Please update your CI to use hardware types on master (queens and newer). Please make sure that the coverage does not suffer. For example, if you used to test pxe_foo and agent_foo, the updates CI should test "foo" hardware type with "iscsi" and "direct" deploy interfaces.

Please let us know if you have any concerns.

Thanks,
Dmitry
