+# Apache Struts 2.5.x End-Of-Life (EOL) Announcement
+
+**The Apache Struts Project Team would like to inform you that the Struts
2.5.x web framework will reach its
+end of life in 6 months and won't be longer officially supported.**
+
+This announcement takes place on 2023-10-30 and starting from that date we
will only support Apache Struts 2.5.x
+in case of security vulnerabilities. Within those 6 months period you can
expect that we do our best to keep
+Struts 2.5.x branch secure, but some of the security related changes cannot
happen without architectural changes that
+can affect backward compatibility. This what happened to Struts 2.5.x, we
introduced some internal changes to improve
+overall framework's security.
+
+## Questions and Answers
+
+* **With the announcement of Struts 2.5.x EOL, what happens to Struts 2.5.x
resources?**
+
+All resources will stay where they are. The documentation will still be
accessible from the Apache Struts homepage,
+as well as the downloads for all released Struts 2.5.x versions. All the
Struts 2.5.x source code can be found
+in the Apache Struts Git repository under branch `support/struts-2-5-x`,
now and in the future. All released Maven
+artifacts will still be accessible in Maven Central.
+
+* **Given a major security problem or a serious bug is reported for Struts
2.5.x in near future, can we expect a new release with fixes?**
+
+Yes, we will continue to support Struts 2.5.x in case of security issues
for the next 6 months, after that time
+we won't support this branch in any case.
+
+* **Is there an immediate need to eliminate Struts 2.5.x from my projects?**
+
+As far as the Struts team is currently aware of, there is no urgent issue
posing the immediate need to eliminate
+Struts 2.5.x usage from your projects. However, you should consider
migration to the latest available version
+as we stop supporting this version in 6 months.
+
+* **We plan to start a new project based on Struts 2.5.x. Can we still do
so?**
+
+Basically yes, but we would not recommend doing so. As long as no code
line is written, it is very easy to conceptually
+select the latest version of Struts 2.
+
+* **My friends / colleagues and I would like to see Struts 2.5.x being
maintained again. What can we do?**
+
+You are free to put effort in Struts 2.5.x. There are basically one
possibility: fork the existing source and support
+it on your own.
+
+* **I'm using Apache Struts 6.x.x, what will happen with this version?**
+
+Struts 6.x.x is still actively supported, we are working on new versions
as well as we are preparing
+a new Struts 7.x.x version. Migration from Struts 2.5.x to Struts 6.x.x
will a way smoother than switching from
+Struts 2.5.x to Struts 7.x.x.
