+Delayed the deprecation of the following features to ``9.0.0``:
+
+* :ref:`node-ctor-fspath-deprecation`.
+* :ref:`legacy-path-hooks-deprecated`.
+
+It was discovered after ``8.1.0`` was released that the warnings about the impeding removal were not being displayed, so the team decided to revert the removal.
+
+This was the reason for ``8.1.0`` being yanked.

+In order to support the transition from ``py.path.local`` to :mod:`pathlib`,

+is now deprecated.
+
+Plugins which construct nodes should pass the ``path`` argument, of type
+:class:`pathlib.Path`, instead of the ``fspath`` argument.
+
+Plugins which implement custom items and collectors are encouraged to replace
+``fspath`` parameters (``py.path.local``) with ``path`` parameters
+(``pathlib.Path``), and drop any other usage of the ``py`` library if possible.
+
+If possible, plugins with custom items should use :ref:`cooperative

+arguments they only pass on to the superclass.

+.. note::
+    The name of the :class:`~_pytest.nodes.Node` arguments and attributes (the

+    argument being ``path``).
+
+    This is an unfortunate artifact due to historical reasons, which should be
+    resolved in future versions as we slowly get rid of the :pypi:`py`
+    dependency (see :issue:`9283` for a longer discussion).
+
+Due to the ongoing migration of methods like :meth:`~pytest.Item.reportinfo`
+which still is expected to return a ``py.path.local`` object, nodes still have
+both ``fspath`` (``py.path.local``) and ``path`` (``pathlib.Path``) attributes,
+no matter what argument was used in the constructor. We expect to deprecate the
