Dear Qubes Community,

The Whonix Project [1] has announced the release of Whonix 16 [2]. For a
list of changes and further details, please see the official
announcement [2].

Please note that, according to the Whonix support schedule [3], Whonix
15 will reach end-of-life (EOL) in one month. This coincides with the

Project's support policy for Whonix templates in Qubes [4]. Therefore,
all Whonix users are urged to upgrade from Whonix 15 to Whonix 16 within
