Yes, fully agree. <br>
</p>
If upgrading to TB74 brings the end-of-life for most addons, then a
recommendation to addon users would be to stick with what they have
-- some with TB60 (like Reminderfox), others with TB68 -- a viable
way to go... until the authors have had time to upgrade?<br>
What about security upgrades for TB60 and TB68?<br>
<br>
There are requests from users to stay with TB60, but there are also
security concerns they mention.<br>
<br>
Do users get an official TB statement about the availability of
security upgrades for TB60 and TB68? And how long will they be
available? (I think it is more than necessary!)<br>
