Subject: [PATCH 1/2] doc: update deprecation notice of legacy flow actions
Date: Thu, 24 Nov 2022 15:26:58 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20221124142659.3350953-2-thomas@monjalon.net> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20221124142659.3350953-1-thomas@monjalon.net>

The legacy flow actions, replaced with the more generic modify action,
are not completely replaced yet in DPDK 22.11.
The plan needs to be updated for this release,
and a new plan must be precised during the next release.
