+ <h1 id="apache-struts-23x-end-of-life-eol-announcement">Apache Struts
2.3.x End-Of-Life (EOL) Announcement</h1>
+
+<p><strong>The Apache Struts Project Team would like to inform you that the
Struts 2.3.x web framework will reach its end of life in 6 months and won’t be
longer officially supported.</strong></p>
+
+<p>This announcement takes place on 2018-11-14 and starting from that date we
will only support Apache Struts 2.3.x in case of security vulnerabilities.
+Within those 6 months period you can expect that we do our best to keep Struts
2.3.x branch secure but some of the security related changes
+cannot happen without architectural changes that can affect backward
compatibility. This what happened to Struts 2.5.x, we introduced some
+internal changes to improve overall framework’s security.</p>
+
+<h2 id="questions-and-answers">Questions and Answers</h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>
+ <p><strong>With the announcement of Struts 2.3.x EOL, what happens to
Struts 2.3.x resources?</strong></p>
+
+ <p>All resources will stay where they are. The documentation will still be
accessible from the Apache Struts homepage, as well as the downloads
+for all released Struts 2.3.x versions. All of the Struts 2.3.x source code
can be found in the Apache Struts Git repository under branch
+<code class="highlighter-rouge">support-2-3</code>, now and in future. All
released Maven artifacts will still be accessible in Maven Central.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p><strong>Given a major security problem or a serious bug is reported for
Struts 2.3.x in near future, can we expect a new release with
fixes?</strong></p>
+
+ <p>Yes, we will continue to support Struts 2.3.x in case of security
issues for the next 6 months, after that time we won’t support this branch
+in any case.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p><strong>Is there an immediate need to eliminate Struts 2.3.x from my
projects?</strong></p>
+
+ <p>As far as the Struts team is currently aware of, there is no urgent
issue posing the immediate need to eliminate Struts 2.3.x usage from
+your projects. However, you should consider migration to the latest available
version as we stop supporting this version in 6 months.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p><strong>We plan to start a new project based on Struts 2.3.x. Can we
still do so?</strong></p>
+
+ <p>Basically yes, but we would not recommend doing so. As long as no code
line is written, it is very easy to conceptually select
+the latest version of Struts 2.</p>
+ </li>
+ <li>
+ <p><strong>My friends / colleagues and I would like to see Struts 2.3.x
being maintained again. What can we do?</strong></p>
+
+ <p>You are free to put effort in Struts 2.3.x. There are basically one
possibility: fork the existing source and support it on your own.</p>
+ </li>
+</ul>
