Re: Remove support for nvidia-cuda-toolkit?
Hi Roberto
That was an interesting form. There were a few fields that I'm not
sure how to fill in more than the obvious.
Like what is the impact of full EOL.
Is it as simple as just to tell that we will not provide security
support for this package? Or is it something more?
Cheers
