+synopsis: r151050 - the latest stable OmniOS release - is out!
+---
+
+OmniOSce v11 r151050 is out!
+
+On the 6th of May 2024, the OmniOSce Association has released a new stable
+version of OmniOS - The Open Source Enterprise Server OS. The release comes
+with many tool updates, brand-new features and additional hardware support. For
+details see the [release notes](https://omnios.org/rn/r50).
+
+**Note that r151038 is now end-of-life.** You should upgrade to r151046
+or r151050 to stay on a supported track. r151046 is an LTS release with support
+until May 2026, and r151050 is a stable release with support until May
+2025.
+
+For anyone who tracks LTS releases, the previous LTS - r151038 - is now
+end-of-life. You should upgrade to r151046 for continued LTS support.
+
+OmniOS is fully Open Source and free. Nevertheless, it takes a lot of time and
+money to keep maintaining a full-blown operating system distribution. Our
+statistics show that there are almost 2'000 active installations of OmniOS
+while fewer than 20 people send regular contributions. If your organisation
+uses OmniOS based servers, please consider becoming a regular
+[patron](https://omnios.org/patron) or taking out a
+[support contract](https://omnios.org/invoice).
