Q: How long must the Phase II transition API be available?

[lliming]

Will Metagrid and intake-esgf ever be updated to use Globus Search and the new Phase II schemas natively?
If yes, then how long after that will we keep the transition API available?

We may want to keep an API around for CMIP5 and some other small legacy projects. That said, they will be much smaller than the entire CMIP5 so we may have the opportunity to downsize from the entirety of CMIP6
