When I looked at the Blue Prism roadmap, I discovered that only V7 had new versions scheduled.
Are there any chances that V6 won't release a new version now in the future?
I mean, of course, this was anticipated at some time, but users need to know well in advance about what the intentions are for V6 in the coming time so things can be planned.
Please share your insights.

To address your question, please refer to this portion of the Product Strategy FAQ:
Will there be a Blue Prism 6.11?
"We currently expect most customers who are looking to actively upgrade right now to select Blue Prism 6.10 as this is likely to be most suitable for those wishing to stay within Version 6. We continue to invest in Blue Prism Version 6 and actively monitor any material known issues found in that version to evaluate if a patch should be provided. Examples of these include patches to provide Chrome stability improvements; and Java automation spying improvements which were provided in patch versions of Blue Prism 6.10.
At the same time we continue to invest in and evolve Blue Prism Version 7 to ensure that it beds-in as an appropriate and safe choice for customers and partners looking to take advantage of the latest functionality as well as the latest performance improvements; Blue Prism 7.1.2 was released in December 2022.
While we will continue to consider patch versions of Blue Prism Version 6, there are no plans to release further minor versions Version 6 beyond 6.10. Subsequently Blue Prism 6.10 is the final minor release and we are not currently planning a Blue Prism 6.11."
You can also refer to the Lifecycle Policy on our Portal for information on end-of-life (EoL) notices, for which a notice for version 6 EoL has not been announced as of the time of this writing.
