Hi,

I talked with Ansuel yesterday and we will probably tag an rc7 on Sunday 
and then tag the final release on Thursday or Friday.

@Daniel: Is this PR fine about the rtl 2.5G PHY ready to merge or just a 
test?
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/pull/17701

Currently we have the following known bugs:

  * LEDs handling for Airoha AN8855 is currently not supported. Xiaomi 
AX3000T with Airoha Switch mounted will have Switch LEDs powered OFF. 
(problem will be addressed in later OpenWrt SNAPSHOT and later Openwrt 
24.10 minor release)
  * 5GHz Wifi on TP-Link Archer C60 v1, TP-Link Archer C6 v2 and 
probably more devices with ath10k Wifi chip does not work, see 
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/14541
  * Ethernet link unstable on some mt7530 switches. Deactivate EEE 
(Energy-Efficient Ethernet) as a workaround, see: 
https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/17351
  * 2.5G PHY on Netgear WAX206, Cudy TR3000 and Ruijie RG-X60 Pro 
broken, see https://github.com/openwrt/openwrt/issues/17183
