Astaro v8 license questions

I am reading a lot about Astaro v8. I have some questions:
a) Is v8 still in beta stage?
b) Is it a mandatory upgrade from 7.5 to 8 to continue receiving latest updates?
c) I use a free home license. Will v8 continue to be available as free home user license like 7.5 or has something changed?

Thanks...
Arun

  • a) General release was 01 July.
    b) 7.506 has been released since then.  I'd guess they'll do one or two more, and that anti-virus and intrusion-prevention patterns will be kept uptodate for a long time.
    c) V8 is in use right now by many home users posting here.

    Cheers - Bob

  • Thanks for your quick reply. Maybe I will continue to use 7.506 for few more months till I find time to upgrade.
