Seems like someone said there'd be an announcement in a few weeks but I can't find that.
j
Current ETA is early next year. There will be an announcement soon, never closer.

can you estimate if there will be a Puppet 8 release before Puppet 6 is EoL?
(for people wanting to go from 6->8 and skipping 7)
j
Yes, the plan is to release Puppet 8 before Puppet 6 goes EOL (projected July 2023)
b
ah wait
but PE 2019 is EoL in ~feb 2023 I think? Or did I mix that up?
ah it's even mentioned in the link
ah https://puppet.com/docs/pe/2019.8/release_notes_pe.html#release_notes_pe says:
Important: With this release, PE 2021.7 is our new PE LTS, and PE 2019.8.z is in overlap support until EOL in February 2023.
has the agent actually longer support than PE?
j
hmm, I think the "projected July 2023" is incorrect. I'll need to check with some folks on that.
