DO we want to upgrade .NET 11?

Hey folks,

dotnet conf came and went. As is normal, a new version of .NET arrived. The normal support question is “should I upgrade?” - for .NET MAUI, the general advise is to upgrade. However, in our case, upgrading our platform to .NET 11 is a big undertaking and involves also taking EF Core 11 and other upgrades as there is a cascading effect to such upgrades.

If we do decide to upgrade to .NET 11, then I’ll release an 11.0.0 release with just .NET 11 (and not EF Core 11), and then an 11.1.0 with EF Core 11 as well (once all the drivers are released). This also means the v10 release train will not get any further releases.

So, question time!
