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
