GNU, Is there an end-of-support date for GCC version 4.3.0? I'm assisting a customer here at NAWCWD China Lake, California, to register software in our Navy database, DADMS. In order to use (or purchase) software, it must be approved in DADMS. One of the things we must show is proof of vendor support for the particular version. Normally with Commercial (COTS) software, the manufacturer has an end-of-support or end-of-life date, but I'm not sure how this works for free or open source software. I looked at the below links, but could not find the answer. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks, Gary Nordvall Code 722000D NAWCWD China Lake, CA 93555 760-939-2059 gary.nordv...@navy.mil -----Original Message----- From: Jeanne Rasata via RT [mailto:i...@fsf.org] Sent: Wednesday, April 08, 2009 8:55 To: Nordvall, Gary USNUNK NAVAIR 33, , LEGACY SERVER Subject: [gnu.org #427714] Support question for GCC Hello, Gary, > [gary.nordv...@navy.mil - Wed Apr 08 11:49:11 2009]: > Is there an end-of-support date for GCC version 4.3.0?

Any help would be appreciated. I'm sorry, but as this is only a general contact address, I cannot properly answer technical questions such as yours. The best I can do is refer you to the GCC Manual at http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/ and Frequently Asked Questions at http://gcc.gnu.org/faq.html. If neither of those provide an answer to your question, please, contact the GCC users' help list. You can learn more about it at http://gcc.gnu.org/lists.html. I am sorry that I couldn't be of more help. Sincerely, -- Jeanne Rasata Program Assistant Free Software Foundation --- Have we been helpful to you today?
