2007: Proteus Sun SPARC Solaris platform

Dear 17³Ô¹Ï Customer:

If you are using the 17³Ô¹Ï Proteus products on the Sun SPARC Solaris platform please read this letter carefully.

Due to the decline in the demand of the Sun SPARC Solaris platform for Proteus, the 17³Ô¹Ï Proteus product release Y-2006.09-SP3, scheduled for September 2007, will be the final shipping release for this platform. Subsequent new releases will no longer support the Sun SPARC Solaris platform. Older releases of the 17³Ô¹Ï Proteus product family will continue to support the Sun SPARC Solaris platform.

By providing you with this notice, we hope to help minimize your inconvenience in implementing this change. If you are affected by this change, 17³Ô¹Ï is available to assist you in the migration of your 17³Ô¹Ï products to another supported compute platform.
