Eloquence versions are typically supported for a period of 5 years after initial release. The two most recent versions are actively supported; enhancements and patches (proactive and reactive) are developed for the current version, whereas the previous version typically only receives critical patches. Older versions are only supported on a best-effort basis, which might include helping with problem isolation and suggesting possible workarounds, if available, but might also resort to recommending an update to a supported version with recent patches.

Notice that the minimum operating system requirements documented above might also reference operating system versions that have meanwhile been discontinued (end of sales) or obsoleted (end of support) by their respective vendors. Support for Eloquence versions running on obsolete platforms or outdated hardware is severely limited as we may not be able to keep the respective (patch) build environments available for extended periods of time.


Obsolete Eloquence Versions

The following table shows an overview of older Eloquence versions, their release dates and associated operating platforms. Note that all those versions have passed their respective end-of-support dates. The purpose of this table is merely to track the history of former Eloquence releases.
