Hi Wei-Chiu Extremely sorry for the late reply here. Cud u pls help to add more clarity on defining what will happen for branch-2.8 when we call EOL. Does this mean that, no more release coming out from this branch, or some more additional guidelines? - Sunil On Mon, Feb 24, 2020 at 11:47 PM

This thread has been running for 7 days and no -1. Don't think we've established a formal EOL process, but to publicize the EOL, I am going to file a jira, update the wiki and post the announcement to general@ and user@ On Wed, Feb 19, 2020 at 1:40 PM Dinesh Chitlangia wrote: > Thanks Wei-Chiu
