"End of function" dates for v18 - clarification needed

[jhn]

Hi,

@3CX - would it be possible to clarify "end of function" dates for v18?
I'm not after Debian 10, we all know what's happening there. I'm not after support either. Purely focused on what stops working when.

We operate with this info:
https://www.3cx.com/blog/releases/v18-update9a/
Android PUSH until end of 2024
iOS PUSH until 25th April 2025
Access to licensing server from v18 until 28th Feb 2025

I have seen this post:

Post in thread 'What Happens if I Don't Migrate from Version 18 Before EOL? (Self-Hosted Instances, Professional Annual Licenses)'

Dec 1, 2024

actually Android might be a little later than January we don't know yet. iOS is in March. As for security - 3CX V18 runs on Debian 10 which is EOL and of course our software uses a lot of components that may or may not need urgent patching in which case you will have to go to V20 sooner. But we cant know what vulnerability a hacker might find tomorrow...

"no android push in new year. no apple push (we don't know exact date but a little later)."


And then I have seen this post as well:

Clarification is needed (and I apologize in advance if I have missed some info).

Thanks!
