-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA512 Dear Qubes Community,
Fedora 26 will reach EOL ([end-of-life]) on 2018-06-01, and Debian 8 (["Jessie" full, not LTS][debian-releases]) will reach EOL on 2018-06-06. We strongly recommend that all Qubes users upgrade their Fedora 26 and Debian 8 TemplateVMs and StandaloneVMs to Fedora 27 and Debian 9 or higher, respectively, by these EOL dates. We provide step-by-step upgrade instructions for upgrading from [Fedora 26 to 27] and for upgrading from [Debian 8 to 9]. For a complete list of TemplateVM versions supported for your specific version of Qubes, see [Supported TemplateVM Versions]. We also provide fresh Fedora 27 and Debian 9 TemplateVM packages through the official Qubes repositories, which you can install in dom0 by following the standard installation instructions for [Fedora] and [Debian] TemplateVMs. After upgrading your TemplateVMs, please remember to set all qubes that were using the old template to use the new one. The instructions to do this can be found in the upgrade instructions for [Fedora 26 to 27] and [Debian 8 to 9]. Please note that no user action is required regarding the OS version in dom0. If you're using Qubes 3.2 or 4.0, there is no dom0 OS upgrade available, since none is currently required. For details, please see our [Note on dom0 and EOL]. If you're using an older version of Qubes than 3.2, we strongly recommend that you upgrade to 3.2, as older versions are no longer supported.
