   Quoting APE 2

   Major releases every year (or longer). These are releases that can introduce breaking API changes, and should be numbered as x.0.0 (e.g., 6.0.0).

   Any API changes should be preceded by deprecation warnings that should be visible to users for at least a year prior to the API change being carried out.

   My interpretation is that

   • removals can only happen in major releases (so, not 7.2)
   • since this deprecation would land in 6.1, it may be removed in 7.0 on the condition that 7.0 is released a full year after 6.1 or later - otherwise, it should be done in 8.0

   We don't follow strict semver so I can never keep track. If I understood https://github.com/astropy/astropy-APEs/blob/main/APE2.rst correctly, v8.0 sounds fine. I don't think v7.0 would be a full year after v6.1 (more like 6 months) but I cannot tell the future, so we'll see.
