Since [1.2 was released on June 18th](/about/notes/1.2/), support for 1.1 will end on September 19th, 2019. + +At that point we will stop back-porting fixes for security issues and critical bugs to 1.1, so we encourage you to upgrade to the latest version of Istio ({{}}). If you don't do this you may put yourself in the position of having to do a major upgrade on a short timeframe to pick up a critical fix. + +We care about you and your clusters, so please be kind to yourself and upgrade.
