announcement that NIO 1.x will not receive security updates anymore

Open weissi opened this issue 3 years ago • 4 comments

As of 1 May 2022, NIO 1.x will not receive security updates anymore should there be a vulnerability.

More than 3 years after its de-facto deprecation with the release of NIO 2.0.0 I think this is more than reasonable. This should however be communicated to the community, at the very least through the Swift Forums and probably via Twitter too.

Oh, and big NIO 1.x users like Vapor 3 (which uses NIO 1.x in Vapor's 3.x versions) should also be notified so they can notify their users.

This is a good idea.

Vapor 3 has been EOL for a while now so this shouldn't be an issue. Would be good to add a post on the forums announcing the above though to make sure people are aware

@Lukasa / @glbrntt WDYT, I think we should pull the trigger on this.
