2 | # 1.x version is no longer maintained by upstream |
3 | # 2.x is in the tree and is better in almost every way |
4 | # Removal in 90 days. Bug #650464 |

7 | I feel proper mask and last-rite is needed because 2.x is a complete |
8 | rewrite in another language, full re-implementation of the client. |
9 | Give users a bit more time to migrate to 2.x. |
10 | |
11 | A fork of 1.x exists[1] on life support mode with no intentions of |
12 | adding new functionality and will be retired in a year anyway. |
13 | |
14 | Also one of 1.x plugins is vulnerable [2]. |
15 | |
16 | I see no reason keeping old version in the tree anymore. |
