[chirp_users] Chirp Legacy EOL
Hello,
Just out if curiosity, has Chirp-legacy reached s complete End of Lifecycle and there will never be anything past chirp-legacy-20221217? I’ve migrated, for the most part, to Chirp-Next, but still occasionally use legacy and just was curious.
Thanks! -Jerry

Yep, I should probably refresh some of the language about this on the site. But yes, I'd say chirp-legacy is frozen forever at this point. I actually don't even have a build system that can generate those packages anymore, so it would take a huge effort to make that possible again.

Ok, sounds good. Thank you for all your hard work, by the way!

Chirp legacy was based on python 2.7 and that has disappeared and was replaced by python 3.X quite some time ago. Chirp-next is based on python 3.X so the 2 are not interchangeable.
Since no OSes currently distribute python 2.7 you can see that Chirp-legacy is truly EOL. No development or bug fixes means it is truly isolated. If chirp-legacy still works for you then great, but the goal should be to use the version that is truly tracking software changes and actively being maintained and improved.
