Description

The Celery documentation still has some references to MongoDB. These, combined with the fact that nothing was mentioned in the changelog made me expect MongoDB as a result store was still supported. It took a search through the commit log before I found any explanation that documentation was removed because of a lack of resources.

Suggestions

It would also be very much appreciated if the change history would mention stuff like the lack of resources to support MongoDB when documentation is removed.

Hello @dantman , can you please provide references to issues or comments which mention that MongoDB is no longer supported? If you check the commit history, you can see it was relatively recently modified.

The most definitive would probably be ac695d3.

So MongoDB is supported now? If so then this would be a bug report to restore documentation.
