I was doing some perusing at
https://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=nas8N1022027

A couple of things come to mind:
1 - IBM promises one year's notice before it will reach EOS.
2 - 7.1 has been at EOS for almost a year now and there is still no follow on to 7.3. Basically telling us that they don't wait until iNext is just a year out before announcing EOS of iNext - 3.

Based on this one could say that EOS could be announced on 7.2 at any day with EOS one year following. So it could hit as early as 2020. I would say 2021 at the latest.

With the death of 7.2 what systems will no longer be supported?

Something to think about for your year end budgeting. But you can wait to confirm with IBM's year of notice of EOS.
