Over two and a half years after having published the first stable release of ILIAS 5.1, the end of maintenance of this version of ILIAS is just around the corner. ILIAS 5.1.28 announced for August 01, 2018 will be the last maintained ILIAS release of version 5.1. There are no additional releases planned. Additionally, ILIAS maintainers do not need to fix 5.1 related bugs after August 01. Of course, bug fixing of all issues in 5.2 and 5.3 will be continued.

We recommend to migrate your existing 5.1 installations to 5.3 as soon as possible. If you are not able to change to a maintained version of ILIAS, please feel free to contract a service provider that merges ILIAS bug fixes into your 5.1 installation. Please note that the test installation for 5.1 will also be shut down with the end of lifetime of ILIAS 5.1.

For more information please contact the product manager at info@ilias.de.

Kind regards,

Matthias Kunkel
