Are Samba developers aware that the only way to create usable GPOs (which
are arguably one of the most important features of an AD environment) is to
use a Samba version (4.19.x) that is two versions behind the current one and
that, according to "Samba Release Planning and Supported Release Lifetime",
is scheduled for discontinuation in March 2025?

Please note that I am not bitching or demanding anything, I am grateful for
what we have and I truly appreciate the hard work of the Samba team members.
I am just calling attention to this fact. I really wish I could help, but
unfortunately I am just a sysadmin, not a developer.
