Hi, > This then begs the question: What are the support plans for 2.x once 3.x > is released?
depends....on what you mean by support..and WHAT support. if you are thinking freeradius-users mailing list, then that depends on the mix of people on there.... i think that 2.x is close enough to 3.x that MOST things will be the same...eg unlang etc....but what i believe will happen will be similar to 1.x to 2.x - as more people move to 3.x then the support for 2.x will drop away.... given a year or two, anyone asking about 2.0.x or 2.1.x will probably be told to use 2.2.x or 3.x and 1.x queries will be just TOTALLY ignored :-) when 3.x is finally released, we will probably move wholesale to it so my 'on hand' 2.x systems will be gone...and I'll be telling people to upgrade to 3.x :-) > disruption of upgrading to the new 3.x version. What will happen when > problems are discovered in the last 2.x release? Will they be fixed and > a new 2.x released in parallel with 3.x or will folks be told their only > option is to perform a 2.x to 3.x version upgrade? there were SOME 1.x released (security/bug) - i'd expect, in short term that such will happen with 2.2.x - but anything that needs the new process engine etc will be 3.x - no backport alan - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe?
