The announcements editor was never ported to frontend-app-authoring, and the announcements display was never ported to frontend-app-learner-dashboard. This announcements feature is rarely used, undocumented, non-a11y-friendly, and there were no volunteers to port it to the new frontends. It is the last remaining part of the legacy Studio "Maintenance" dashboard. So, we are removing it. BREAKING CHANGE: This removes... * Studio Maintenance dashboard legacy frontend * Studio Edit Announcements legacy frontend * The snippet of legacy learner dashboard which renders announcements * openedx/features/announcements djangoapp * The ENABLE_ANNOUNCEMENTS feature flag Not removed: * The announcements_announcement table from openedx/features/announcements . The table is most likely very small, as it is only populated by administrators. Removing it would be more labor for us and more risk of toil for operators than is worthwhile.

CMS
===
This directory contains code relating to the Open edX Content Management System ("CMS"). It allows learning content to be created, edited, versioned, and eventually published to the `Open edX Learning Mangement System <../lms>`_ ("LMS"). The main user-facing application that CMS powers is the `Open edX Studio <https://docs.openedx.org/en/latest/educators/concepts/open_edx_platform/what_is_studio.html>`_
