<h3>Problem/Motivation</h3>
<p>The module currently declares <code>core_version_requirement: ^9.3 || ^10</code>, so it cannot be installed on Drupal 11. Drupal 10 reaches end-of-life on 9 December 2026 — the same day Drupal 12.0.0 is released — so Contribute needs a release that supports Drupal 11 today and is already clean for Drupal 12.</p>
<p>This is the tracking (meta) issue for that work on a new <code>2.0.x</code> branch (<code>^10.3 || ^11</code>). It supersedes the stale automated Drupal 10 patches (<span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/3411691" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/3411691</a></span>, <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/3286765" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/3286765</a></span>) and resolves "No supported release" (<span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/3418296" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/3418296</a></span>).</p>
<h3>Proposed resolution</h3>
<p>Create a <code>2.0.x</code> branch supporting <code>^10.3 || ^11</code> and address the following:</p>
<ul>
<li>Bump <code>core_version_requirement</code> and <code>composer.json</code> to <code>^10.3 || ^11</code>, dropping Drupal 9 (EOL).</li>
<li>Add <code>TypedConfigManagerInterface</code> to the <code>ConfigFormBase</code> constructor, required since Drupal 10.2 / 11.</li>
<li>Convert the <code>@Block</code> annotation to a <code>#[Block]</code> PHP attribute (Drupal 12 prep — annotations are being removed).</li>
<li>Code-quality fixes: correct the <code>hook_install()</code> docblock, fix the <code>case 'user';</code> semicolons and the <code>:href_ groups</code> placeholder space in ContributeManager.</li>
<li>Convert README.txt to README.md (closes <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/3320697" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/3320697</a></span>, currently RTBC).</li>
<li>Add <code>.gitlab-ci.yml</code> with next-major (Drupal 11) testing enabled.</li>
<li>Fix the drupal.org integration: the autocomplete controller and the functional test use dead Drupal 7-era drupal.org endpoints. Rework them against current APIs and re-green the tests on Drupal 11.</li>
<li>Tag <code>2.0.0-beta1</code>.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Remaining tasks</h3>
<ul>
<li>Close <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/3439382" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/3439382</a></span> (misfiled support request against a non-existent <code>8.x-5.0-beta3</code> version).</li>
<li>Close <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/2942882" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/2942882</a></span> (Drupal 7 backport — Drupal 7 is EOL).</li>
<li>Keep feature requests <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/2948780" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/2948780</a></span>, <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/2944871" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/2944871</a></span> and <span class="drupalorg-gitlab-issue-link drupalorg-gitlab-link-wrapper"><a href="https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/2944296" class="drupalorg-gitlab-link">https://git.drupalcode.org/project/contribute/-/work_items/2944296</a></span> open for after 2.0.0.</li>
