4.11 will be supported for another 18 months.  I have servers that are
scheduled for hardware retirement before then -- I'm not upgrading them.
Why should I?  They're doing their job perfectly well.

You should review the the security support information and make sure
that you plan to upgrade/replace before anything becomes unsupported.
