v9.5 has been implemented as a new Extended Support Release in February, 2024. v9.5 will be supported until November 15, 2024.
We have been maintaining v8.1 as our current ESR. This version is coming to the end of its life cycle. Starting May 15, 2024 we are no longer backporting fixes to v8.1. Please upgrade your systems to v9.5 as soon as possible to continue to receive important bug fixes and security updates and to maintain mobile compatibility.
Extended Support Releases or ESRs are intended for organizations who value stability over having the newest features and improvements, or for organizations who have a long internal testing and certification process to undergo when upgrading.
