Apologies, I just noticed that this email was sent with an incorrect
subject line. It's only Ubuntu Precise instances that will be shut
down... Trusty will live on.

In April, Ubuntu 12.04 Precise will reach its official End of Life.
That means no more security upgrades, so after that date servers and
VMs running Precise will no longer be welcome on Wikimedia
infrastructure.
Toollabs users are already on notice that web services and tools need
to be upgraded to run on Trusty, Jessie, or Kubernetes hosts. Outside
of Toollabs, there are still 30-some Precise instances running on
Labs, listed below.
If you are responsible for any of these VMs, please begin migrating
your work to new instances as soon as possible. Due to security
concerns, this is a hard deadline -- instances WILL be shut down on
March 31st, and their data destroyed a few weeks later. The Labs team
will be dedicating quite a bit of time to assisting with this
migration in the coming months, so don't hesitate to ask for help if
you run into trouble or the migration process is unclear. Do start
thinking about this now so you don't get lost in a stampede of support
requests in March.
If possible you'll want to migrate to instances running Debian
Jessie. Trusty will sunset in 2019 but support for Jessie (both from
the WMF and from upstream maintainers) is likely to continue well
after that.
