+title: SkyWalking v8 OAP server End-of-life(EOL) 
+date: 2022-09-02

+
+This is an official annoucement from SkyWalking team.
+
+Due to the [Plan to End-of-life(EOL) all v8 releases in Nov. 2022](../deprecate-v8/index.md) had been posted in 3 months,
+SkyWalking community doesn't received any rejection or a proposal about releasing a new patch version.
+
+Now, it is time to end the v8 series. All documents of v8 are not going to be hosted on the website. 
+You only could find the artifacts and source codes from [the Apache's archive repository](https://archive.apache.org/dist/skywalking/).
+The documents of each version are included in `/docs/` folder in the source tars.
+
+The SkyWalking community would reject the bug reports and release proposal due to its End-of-life(EOL) status. v9 provides more powerful features and
+covers all capabilities of the latest v8. Recommend upgrading to the latest.
+
+V8 was a memorable and significative release series, which makes the project globally adopted. It brought dev community scale 
+up to [over 500 contributors](https://skywalking.apache.org/blog/2021-07-12-500-contributors-mark/).
+
+**We want to highlight and thank all those contributors and end users again. You made today's SkyWalking.**
+
+Welcome more contributors and users to join the community, to contribute your ideas, experiences, and feedback. We need you to improve and enhance 
+the project to a higher level.
