[DISCUSS] Deprecate older hypervisors in 4.14
All,
Bases on some conversation on a Github issue on moving to Python3 today, I would like to propose a PR after 4.13 is cut on deprecation of following hypervisors in the next major 4.14 release:
- XenServer 6.2, 6.5 and older
- VMware 5.x
- KVM/CentOS6/RHEL6 (though we've already voted and agreed to deprecate el6 packages in 4.14)
Note that it was mentioned in recent release notes as well, but I wanted to kick off a discussion thread if esp. our users have any objections or concerns: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CLOUDSTACK/Hypervisor+and+Management+Server+OS+EOL+Dates
Thoughts? Anything we should add, remove? Thanks.
Regards,
Rohit Yadav

I would also opt for Ubuntu 14.04 as that is EOL since April 2019 and we
should/could drop that support as well.

Sounds like a good idea!
People can still stay on a older version of CS if needed for them.
We can't support older versions for ever.
