Jorge, Andy and others: As per below you can have the old 201 exam and the new 202 exam and still receive your LPIC-2 certification. After March 31st, however, you will only be able to write the new exams.
Jorge I will contact you later this evening with a follow up email on your existing stock of paper exams and next steps.
