Problem/Motivation

Track the steps needed to remove extension Book from core to contrib. See Remove a core module and move it to a contributed project of the deprecation policy.

The contrib project is ?

The removal of extension Book was approved in #3265493: [Policy] Move book to contrib in Drupal 11.

Remaining tasks

  1. Begin finding someone to maintain the contrib version of the Book module.
  2. Move integrations implemented by other modules to the Book module.
    Create child issues or child meta issues, as needed, to address the following points. Not all points will apply to all extensions.
  3. Do a thorough search of core for any remaining references to the Book module. If references are found, outside of the Book module, then create issues to remove the references.
  4. Create the contrib project with a stable release. Follow the process in Create the contrib project with a stable release for creating the sub tree split.
  5. Deprecate the core extension. #3413932: Deprecate Book module

The dumps are changes in 11.x not 10, so removing those items.

FYI if no one volunteers for the contrib you can put my name down if it helps things. But full disclosure only used book once

@smustgrave, are you still willing to create the Book contrib project?

I could be listed as a co-maintainer with smutgave

I just tried to create a module with short name "book" but I was rejected: "This project short name is reserved."

I think all the core module names are reserved in project module, needs a drupalorg issue to un-reserve it.

Currently waiting for book to be unreserved on drupal.org to create a contrib space.

Many of my projects use the book module so I have a keen interest to ensure that it doesn't bust.

Where is the new contrib module? There's currently no release for it.
