Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b7e92

The documentation currently marks v11.8 complete before its support period ends and advertises v11.11 and related commands before the September 16, 2026 release date, which could mislead administrators or direct them to an unavailable release. Correct the release status and publication timing, and verify the changelog reference before merging.
