EOL for Spring Boot 2.3.X and Spring Cloud Hoxton.SR6

Question

When is the planned EOL for Spring Boot 2.3.X and Spring Cloud Hoxton.SR6?

I found 2 links:

1. https://spring.io/projects/spring-cloud:

Spring Cloud Dalston, Edgware, Finchley, and Greenwich have all reached end of life status and are no longer supported.

2. https://spring.io/blog/2019/12/23/spring-cloud-roadmap-and-hoxton-and-greenwich-maintenance-and-eol-announcements

Spring Cloud Hoxton Finchley was first released in June 2018. Therefore, Hoxton, a minor release of the Finchley release train, will be supported until the end of June 2021 with regular releases. Starting in July 2021 Hoxton will enter a special maintenance period where only critical bug fixes and security patches will be released until the end of December 2021.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Answer 1

See here: https://github.com/spring-projects/spring-boot/wiki/Supported-Versions

Spring Boot releases are usually marked end of life 27 months after they were released.

And here: https://spring.io/projects/spring-boot#support

Branch	Initial Release	End of Support	End Commercial Support *
...	...	...	...
2.3.x	2020-05-15	2021-05-20	2022-08-20
...

And from (thx, @spencergibb): https://github.com/spring-cloud/spring-cloud-release/wiki/Supported-Versions#supported-releases

Hoxton was released in November 2019 and will be actively maintained until June 30, 2021 (Supporting the Spring Boot 2.2.x and 2.3.x lines. Hoxton.SR5 added support for Spring Boot 2.3.x). If critical bugs or security issues arise after that period, they will be patched until Mar 26, 2022.
