Q1: Are there plans to end support for classic sites, or will Microsoft continue to support multiple site types and are just adding in this new design? 

Q2: When will GCC get the new site design?

Q3: Is a M365 Copilot License required in order to use SharePoint agents? Being GCC, we do not have PAYG for non-licensed Copilot users yet.

Thanks!

    1. We strongly urge all customers to move from classic to modern. All of the new features announced today are available on with modern site experience. When we have updates about classic sites, we will first update our Microsoft 365 roadmap - so please keep watching it.
    2. The new SharePoint experience should be available in preview for GCC as well. Let us know, via MC post feedback, if you are not seeing it. 
    3. Short answer Yes. This question was addressed in the live AMA event in more detail, it was the first question. Check out the recording here
