@Killian-fal Thanks for the PR, however, I don't feel any changes are necessary at this time as explained in my comments. I'll go ahead and close this.

I think this sentence is redundant as it's already stated in:

Going forward, new features will be added to Spring Security starting in 7.0

We don't do updates to maintenance branches unless it's a bug fix.

The project page and GitHub project provide the same notice that indicates the move to Spring Security 7.0 and also provides a link to the blog announcement explaining the decision for the move. The blog announcement also provides a link to the new reference documentation location in Spring Security 7.
