Hi, 

I was searching the EOL date(s) for FIM 2010 R2 SP1. My conclusions are (because there's no next Service pack) that the mainstream support ends the 14th of July 2015 and FIM 2010 R2 SP1 goes in "extended support".

However, there's no next version of FIM (aka MIM) available yet. I've found article https://identityunderground.wordpress.com/tag/mim-2015/ where was stated that with the release of MIM, FIM 2010 R2 SP1 it's support will be extended to 2017. Is that actually true? Why isn't it updated on the EOL site of Microsoft?

If a company does not have "extended hotfix support (EHS)" via Premier Services, how can they run fully supported? Additionally, the "extended hotfix support" from Premier is quite costly and the "proposed" approach is "update to the latest version" as its probably cheaper.

Kind regards,
David

I wrote the post mentioned in the URL above and I can assure you that came
right from the FIM product group. The reason that the EOL table hasn't been
updated is that MIM has not been released so no one knows exactly what the
n+2 years value is currently going
