[opensuse-announce] Advance discontinuation notice for openSUSE 11.3
by Marcus Meissner 01 Dec '11

01 Dec '11

Hi, Dear opensuse-announce subscribers and openSUSE users, SUSE Security announces that the SUSE Security Team and the SUSE sponsored openSUSE maintenance team will stop releasing updates for openSUSE 11.3 soon. Having provided security-relevant and bug fixes for the last two releases and two months, we will stop releasing updates after Jan 16th 2012. A community driven extension of the maintenance like Evergreen for openSUSE 11.1 and 11.2 is possible and will be announced when happening. As a consequence, the openSUSE 11.3 distribution directory on our server download.opensuse.org will be removed from /distribution/11.3/ to free space on our mirror sites. The 11.3 directory in the update tree /update/11.3 will follow, some time after all updates have been published. Also the openSUSE buildservice repositories containing openSUSE 11.3 will be moved to DISCONTINUED:openSUSE:11.3 and building against openSUSE 11.3 will be disabled in all buildservice projects. The discontinuation of openSUSE 11.3 enables us to focus on the openSUSE distributions of a newer release dates to ensure that our users can continuously take advantage of the quality that they are used to with openSUSE products. This announcement holds true for openSUSE 11.3 only. As usual, the openSUSE project will continue to provide update packages for the following products: openSUSE 11.4 (supported until approximately Sep 15th 2012) openSUSE 12.1 (supported until approximately May 15th 2012) openSUSE 12.2 (currently in development, to be released in July 2011) for the next two openSUSE releases plus a two months overlap period.
