The /e/OS development team has enough tasks on its hand with maintaining the devices in its supported list. Additional tasks which will require resource allocation and additional planning will not be taken up as they will impact our current priorities.
We follow a patter of support for devices we sell on our shop or devices which have maintainers on the LineageOS platform. If there are users who want to be device maintainers, they are more than welcome to share their skills and take up the maintenance of particular devices.
We are not planning on any tie up with other custom ROM teams.
Users on older /e/OS builds are requested to start upgrading their devices to newer builds where available. As mentioned we will share a list of devices that will be upgraded from /e/OS R the remaining unfortunately will have to be marked as legacy and will not be supported.
Users need to understand that keeping old devices on platforms that neither receive security patches nor vendor patches is not advisable.
