As much as I don't want to come of as saying "me too!", I agree with
everyone who wants the old IOS release table in security advisories to
come back. The IOS Software Checker is a nice tool, and development on it
should absolutely continue, but the benefits of that tool do not
completely offset the loss of IOS release tables.
As a possible compromise - how about keeping the IOS release tables until
the software checker is more fully developed?
Thanks
