Adios Drupal 6, es el fin

As announced in the Drupal 6 extended support policy, 3 months after
Drupal 8 comes out, Drupal 6 will be end-of-life (EOL).

On February 24th 2016, Drupal 6 will reach end of life and no longer be
supported.
What this means for you:

Drupal 6 will no longer be supported by the community at large. The
community at large will no longer be creating new projects, fixing bugs
in existing projects, writing documentation, etc. around Drupal 6.
There will be no more core commits on Drupal 6.x to the official
tree. (see What if I have a Drupal 6 site still)
The security team will no longer provide support or Security
Advisories for Drupal 6
All Drupal 6 releases on project pages will be flagged as not
supported.
At some point in the future update status may stop working for
Drupal 6 sites.

Should I update to Drupal 7 or Drupal 8?

The version of Drupal you choose for your upgrade will depend on how
complex your site is, what contributed modules you need, and other
factors. Many modules have been built in to Drupal 8. For example, Views
and a WYSIWYG editor come as a part of Drupal 8, which means that some
sites can move to Drupal 8 much sooner. Find out more about Drupal 8.

Drupal 8 core also provides a Migration path directly from Drupal 6 as
an experimental feature, so sites can update directly to Drupal 8 using
either a user interface or with Drush. See Executing a Drupal 6/7 to
Drupal 8 upgrade for more details. The Migrate feature will be fully
supported in a later minor release of Drupal 8.

Drupal 7 remains fully supported, so Drupal 6 sites can also update to
Drupal 7 using the core update feature when that is a better fit. Drupal
7 is estimated to be supported until Drupal 9 is released, or later. For
more information follow: [policy, no patch] Drupal 7 (and 8) EOL timing.

What if I have a Drupal 6 site still?

You should plan to upgrade your site as soon as possible. For sites not
updated before February 24th 2016, the Security Team is working with
some vendors who are willing to provide paid support for Drupal 6 sites
beyond February 24th, 2016. We will announce the details of this in
early January. If you are a vendor that would like to look into doing
this, please read D6 LTS Vendors policy.
