[Oisf-users] Question for CentOS/RHEL Suricata Users

[Jason Taylor]

Hi Craig,

According to https://suricata-ids.org/about/eol-policy/

It looks like the 4.0.x branch would go EOL once 4.1 has a couple of point
released (e.g. 4.1.2)

Of course Victor and team will likely have more specific ideas as far as
timing/dates.
