Hi!

I see that our official EOL date for 5.5 is 10 Jul 2016. Since we just
had a release of 5.5.37, I imagine we will be releasing another 5.5 -
5.5.38 - on July 21th, and this will be the last 5.5 version released?

Just want to be sure and maybe we (and by that I mean 5.5 RMs ;) should
issue some kind of official statement on that, since we've done all
kinds of changes with EOL dates in the past, so it'd be nice to have
final confirmation.

Thanks,

Yes, that would be nice. I think we could do it with the release
before the last release but we missed it. So yes, publishing an
announcement this week would be best. Alternatively we do two more
releases but I am not too keen to extend 5.5 support :)

Cheers,
Pierre
