Dear Qubes Community,

With the recent release of Whonix 14 [1] and subsequent announcement
that Whonix 13 will reach EOL (end-of-life) on 2018-09-30 [2], we have
updated the Supported Versions page [3] with a new section [4]
explaining the Whonix support policy. For your convenience, the content
of that section, as it currently appears, is reproduced below. In the
future, users are advised to consult the Supported Versions page for the
current version of the policy.

- -----

Whonix is an advanced feature in Qubes OS.  Those who wish to use it
must stay reasonably close to the cutting edge by upgrading to new
stable versions of Qubes OS and Whonix TemplateVMs within a month of
their respective releases.  To be precise:

 * One month after a new stable version of Qubes OS is released, Whonix
   TemplateVMs will no longer be supported on any older version of Qubes
   OS.  This means that users who wish to continue using Whonix
   TemplateVMs on Qubes must always upgrade to the latest stable Qubes
   OS version within one month of its release.

 * One month after new stable versions of Whonix TemplateVMs are
   released, older versions of Whonix TemplateVMs will no longer be
   supported.  This means that users who wish to continue using Whonix
   TemplateVMs on Qubes must always upgrade to the latest stable Whonix
   TemplateVM versions within one month of their release.

We aim to announce both types of events one month in advance in order to
remind users to upgrade.
