Then it was about the future of the development environment, now it’s about moving to newer versions – as Microsoft will stop supporting several Visual Studio versions in the coming months. Microsoft provides five years of regular support (mainstream support) plus an additional five years of extended support for the IDE. The coming April is important for several variants of the IDE.
