Summary

With the release of GitLab 10.0 on September 22nd, deprecated runners relying on an outdated API will no longer be able to communicate with the system, necessitating an upgrade for any runners older than version 9.0 to avoid downtime. GitLab has been phasing out support for these older runners, as previously announced with the release of GitLab 9.0 and in subsequent communications. Users are urged to check their runner versions and upgrade them accordingly, especially before the release candidate's deployment around September 8th, which will render old runners inoperative if connected to GitLab.com. Admins can verify runner versions via the Admin area, while project Owners or Masters can check through project settings. Upgrading the runners to the latest version will ensure continued functionality and potentially improved performance.
