Suggesting to replace "(CE)" to "(Redis CE)".
Instead of "Redis Community Edition formerly called Redis Stack", we should say that we consolidated Redis, Redis Stack, RediSearch, RedisJSON, RedisTimeSeries, and RedisBloom into a single Product - Redis Community Edition (Redis CE).
Here, you'll find the "end-of-life" dates for each module and release.
Instead of saying that we EoL the modules, which may be quite confusing. We should better say that we incorporated the modules into Redis CE and we no longer offer them as separate downloadables.
| In Redis CE 8.0 and beyond, module version numbers will align exactly with the Redis CE versions that include them. | ||
| For example, the modules included with Redis CE 8.0 will all have version number 8.0. | ||
|
|
||
| This also means that Redis CE versions 8.0+ require modules with an exact match in version number. |

We can remove this sentence because CE does not "require" modules. It includes modules.
We don't even want to mention "modules" anymore, these are capabilities. The fact that they are packaged as modules is an internal implementation detail.
