Changes in v2:
- Expand the changelog with the background and the Maintainers Summit
discussion (Laurent, Krzysztof, Greg, Lorenzo).
- Rebase on docs-next and also remove the Assisted-by sections from the
pt_BR and zh_TW translations there.
- Collect tags.
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20261009083137.3-1-sashal@xxxxxxxxxx/
OK, I have applied this, thanks.
Thanks Jon!
Also ping re: the AGENTS.md patch. Without it, we'll get very mixed results
with just this change, where agents will pick and choose different policies
around Assisted-by: because nothing is pointing them to the actual guidelines
we have.

Thanks,
