---------------------------------------------
{quote}bq.But people installing v8.6.0 will be warned one year later in 2021 if
they are still on 8.6.0.

But what if all committers and PMC members suddenly die and there is no 8.7
version in one year's time?
> Warn users running old version of Solr
> --------------------------------------

> Key: SOLR-14336
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-14336
> Project: Solr
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Security Level: Public(Default Security Level. Issues are Public)
> Reporter: Jan Høydahl
> Priority: Major
>
> There are obviously many very old Solr installs out there. People are still
> reporting issues for Solr 4.x and 5.x. This is a proposal that Solr will
> print a warning in the logs and display a warning in the Admin UI Dashboard
> when running a (probably) outdated version.
> I do not aim to "call home" to Apache to check versions, but instead parse
> release date from 'solr-impl-version' string and warn if more than 1 year
> old. That should be very conservative as there will almost certainly be a
> handful new releases, with potential security fixes.
