support status of AS3?

What's the support / development status of AS3?

The last release was Sept 2024 and the support page mentions 1) that a LTS was coming in the fall and 2) that, by the timeline in the SUPPORT.md file, none of the current release versions are supported anymore.

Also, it seems so many basic "flag" type of settings can't be set in AS3 because they're not defined in the schema and it hasn't changed or moved forward in years.

For example, you can't define the GeoIP field be added to the network or ASM logs via AS3. It's not a valid value. It's in the web UI though. So, you can get 95% of the way there with AS3. Additionally, stuff like LTM policy "enable" / "disable" flags doesn't support all settings that are available in the web UI to enable or disable. ie: you can't disable the BOT and DOSL7 profiles via AS3 authored LTM policy. So many of these seem more like the schema file just needs some "allowed values" added to it vs. a whole new "type" of thing. We end up hacking it in via iRules.

You still can't configure modern "bot defense" profiles at all. Luckily, for us, they don't change very often so we just have a TXT file of tmsh commands we run across our 4 F5 VEs when we do need to change them. but it's just annoying.
