I picked some arbitrary date (a week from now) to give some time for reviews. In my opinion the publish date is flexible as long as it is within the next few weeks.
Pushed an update to fix the linter and add a banner for this. |

**tl;dr:** we're planning to bring forward the End-of-Life date of Node.js 16 by seven months to coincide with the end of support of OpenSSL 1.1.1 on September 11th, 2023. |

When we put together Node.js 16 the hope was that we would be able to include OpenSSL 3. Unfortunately the timing of the releases did not allow that to be possible, and we released Node.js 16 with OpenSSL 1.1.1. OpenSSL 1.1.1 is [scheduled to be supported up until September 11th, 2023](https://www.openssl.org/policies/releasestrat.html), which is seven months before the planned End-of-Life date of Node.js 16 (April 2024). | ||
