Why announce a critical patch for an outdated version???

This is an excellent question, one that we had a few discussions
about this
week, internally.
Traditionally, the Messaging product line has done this but
typically, for
our other product lines, Ipswitch does not. We are assessing this
policy
to determine a consistent approach across all product lines.
I hope both these responses are in jest... 8.2 may have a very long
shelf life if the current resource problems are not sorted out in
version 9.
Also I would hope that any decent company that cared about it's
products from a business integrity standpoint would update their
products if serious vulnerabilities are found at least back one
version number. I'm surprised this was even a consideration at ipswitch.
