Is there a location on the Rocket support site that lists various Rocket products and their lifecycle information (something similar to IBM's)?

Overview - Product lifecycle - IBM Support


At this point, no.  Rocket hasn't set up anywhere to show the lifecycle information on when we are dropping support on the back versions on product. 

General rule of thumb is once a new release of a product comes out, the -2 version of the product will drop support  6 months to a year after the new version comes out.   For Zeke 7.0.5 is the -1 version.  Zeke 7.1.1 was released in Oct. of 2024.  Version 8.1.1 of Zeke will come out around Oct. 2026, once 8.1.1, Zeke 7.0.5 will drop support some time in 2026.   There isn't much difference between 7.1.1 and 7.0.5, outside of the Custome fields, and IBMi functions.   The release notes can be found at :  https://docs.rocketsoftware.com/bundle/zeke_711/page/dmb1727203668287.html
