We are announcing the deprecation and removal of analysis3 environments older than June 2025.
This change is intended to ensure we can continue to provide high-quality, well-supported analysis environments for the ACCESS community, while ensuring supported environments include recent, well-maintained packages. Reducing the number of active environments allows us to focus on stability, compatibility, and ongoing quality.
As part of this process, deprecated environments will no longer be available.
Impacted environments
The following environments are now deprecated and will be removed.

Users are strongly encouraged to move to a more recent analysis3 environment (for example, analysis3-latest) to ensure continued access to supported software and up-to-date packages.
As always, if you encounter any issues when migrating, or if you have constraints that prevent you from upgrading, please open an issue on the ACCESS-Hive-Forum. We will be very happy to help.
