Explanations of the 3 states in the product life cycle:
•General Availability
Release approval and determination for which software components the product is certified (system requirements)
•Mature
As soon as new major release is available; no further ongoing patches/hot fixes; fixes of operation preventing and serious bugs (classification is done by the manufacturer) provided that it is not possible for the customer to upgrade to the next product version.
•Retired
After about 12 months "Mature" phase; if it is an operation preventing bug (classification is done by the manufacturer) there is basically the possibility to apply for a bug fix. Fixes for retired products are always subject to a charge.
