Description
https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2023/06/sitemaps-lastmod-ping?hl=en
@ewjoachim has posted the above blog post by Google in the Django Discord which details that Google will be depreciating the sitemap ping in 6 months time (end of January 2024).
This ping endpoint is used by contrib.django.sitemaps (ping_google() in __init__.py) and also has an associated management command which will require depreciation if Google are going to disable the endpoint.
