This work will continue through 2026 and beyond.<\/p>\n<p>As new content is published and earlier versions are replaced, we will periodically move items into mature support and schedule them for retirement at a later date. It is important to occasionally check your web maps and apps to make sure they are using the latest versions of items that are in general availability and update them if needed.<\/p>\n<p>For more
