Mapping and Charting Solutions 10.6.1 Patch 9?

[TimThayer]

Does anyone know if there will be a Mapping and Charting Solutions 10.6.1 Patch 9, and if so, the approximate time frame?  We are trying to decide whether to test and approve Patch 8 for our production environment, or to wait for a (potential) Patch 9 coming soon.  Thanks!

Hi Tim

I am not aware of any pending plans for another patch. That being said, 10.6.1 is in the Extended Support phase of the product life cycle. During this phase, ending Dec 2021, patches and hot fixes are possible, although generally uncommon. The Mature Support phase begins Jan 2022. At that time, patches and hot fixes are no longer available.
