Will there be an overlapping period (and if not, can we add such a period)? For example, have one release where org-contrib is still shipped, and the NonGNU repos are available. That gives users such as myself a period to switch over without things breaking immediately. If I understand correctly, the current plan is that users using org-contrib will have their configs break immediately when they upgrade to 9.5, forcing them to do both the 9.5 upgrade and switchover to NonGNU simultaneously. It's easier if we can first safely upgrade to 9.5, then switch to NonGNU repos, and in the next release org-contrib can be removed.
