Current evaluation

Support-schedule chart in snapcraft docs renders release milestones and legacy add-on commitment in near-black (#111), unreadable in dark mode. Fix requested: Canonical colours with contrast for both modes. Unfixed; black fill still in support-chart.css, no activity since filing.

Suggested action: keep open

Reason: The issue is a valid, clearly-scoped bug (labeled Type: Bug, filed by maintainer medubelko) and is still reproducible: docs/_static/css/support-chart.css still defines .chart__bar--black { fill: #111; } and .chart__milestone-release { fill: #56334b; }, and the only commits touching the chart files are the original addition (#5911) and a label/date update (#6158), neither of which addresses dark-mode contrast. It should remain open for a straightforward CSS colour fix.
