Security Support for Debian 3.1 to be terminated
Friday, February 29th, 2008Security Support for Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 to be terminated on March 31st
One year after the release of Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 alias ‘etch’ and nearly three years after the release of Debian GNU/Linux 3.1 alias ’sarge’ the security support for the old distribution (3.1 alias ’sarge’) is coming to an end next month. The Debian project is proud to be able to support its old distribution for such a long time and even for one year after a new version has been released.
The Debian project has released Debian GNU/Linux 4.0 alias ‘etch’ on the 8th of April 2007. Users and Distributors have been given a one-year time frame to upgrade their old installations to the current stable release. Hence, the security support for the old release of 3.1 is going to end in March 2007 as previously announced.
