Is there any plans to Symantec Endpoint Proteciton support Itanium-based Systems in the future?

Maybe MR6 or SEP12 ?

I belive the last client

I belive the last client Symantec had that supported IA64 was SAV 9. I don't suspect IA64 support coming back in symantec products. Thought they do now support EMT64.

I am hearing that SEP will not have Itanium support in the future.

But how long will SAV be supported?

For some reason there are no end-of-support-life dates for SAV 10.0 thru 10.2..

How much longer will SAV be supported, given that SEP has been out for well over 2 years now?  Perhaps now is the time for Symantec to update the SAV end-of-support dates.
