Reminder to update Ruby 3.2 and Rails 7.1.x

This is your reminder that if you run #Ruby 3.2, now would be a good time to start planning an update.

It will be EOL in about 10 months - March 2026. I know that 2026 seems far away but it is not that far in terms of dependencies and upgrades.

If you are running Ruby on Rails 7.1.x then now would be a good time to schedule upgrade. 
Security support will end on 1st October 2025 - this year.
