Time for Blackbaud to complete the development of SKY
It is taking up too much time to learn SKY using a beta version of the product. I am wasting a lot of Blackbaud's time as well as I try to find answers where there none, yet. Blackbaud should extend the drop-dead rate for using the Classic view until the point when SKY is finished and users have had time to learn how to use it. If there is a reason for the current October 2021 drop dead date, we should know and understand why.

The reason for the drop dead date is because Internet Explorer is discontinuing support for Silverlight which is the platform on which BBG Classic is built.
From the Microsoft website: Microsoft Silverlight will reach the end of support on October 12, 2021. There is no longer Silverlight support for Chrome, Firefox, or any browser using the Mac operating system.3 -
Thank you, Deena.
I tried responding online, but was not
successful. I am not fluent with group communications.Has there been any effort to delay the October
12th date, not just from Blackbaud, but from the
universe of users?Carolyn

Carolyn - I am not sure Microsoft would continue their support of Silverlight after October 12 because of Blackbaud Grantmaking.
