<h2><a name="Shell-EOL"></a>End-of-life for Shorewall-shell in
Shorewall 4.4<br>
</h2>
The Shorewall 4.4 release in late 2009 will not include
Shorewall-shell. Because Shorewall 4.0 is included in Debian Lenny, the
4.0 release of Shorewall-shell will continue to be supported until
Debian Sid is released. The 4.2 release of Shorewall-shell will
continue to be supported until Shorewall 4.6 is released in 2010.<br>
<br>
Shorewall-shell users are encouraged to<a href="Shorewall-perl.html">
migrate to Shorewall-perl</a> at the earliest opportunity. Users who
run Shorewall-shell on an embedded system that is too small to support
Perl should consider switching to <a href="CompiledPrograms.html#Lite">Shorewall-lite</a>
with Shorewall-perl installed on an administrative system (may be a
Windows[tm] system running <a href="http://www.cygwin.com">Cygwin</a>[tm]).<br>
