  • at some point UMD3 will be "freezed" (no more updates of any kind, either security ones)
    • OMB suggested to remove it completely so that it's not used anymore
    • probably we will establish a period of 2-4 weeks during which sites get progressively aware that the old repos won't work anymore and switch to UMD4/SL6
    • if any security issue comes out during that period, we will ask to shut down the repository
