Hi Michal,

Thanks for the updated timeline but I'd like to express that the short 
notice for XRootD 4 EOL is shocking. Although all of the XCaches in the 
OSG are using XRootD 5.x, there are many sites still using XRootD 4 out 
of OSG 3.5 production and I suspect that there will be sites using 
XRootD 4 until Feb '22. What are your plans to support these sites in a 
transition to XRootD 5?

Thanks,
Brian
