With the release of Getorin, the support for Anacreon is discontinued. It is highly recommended to upgrade to our new stable release, as there will be no more security and bug fixes for Anacreon. We have released FSA589 to FSA616 for Solaria. That means 28 security problems were issued in half a year.
