Smart Proxy Version Compatibility Question

Greetings!

I have a system admin in another organization and location within my
company that runs a puppet master + smart proxy on RHEL 6. We have just
upgraded our Foreman server from 1.11 to 1.13.3, and didn't realize that
EL6 support had been removed from the 1.13 tree. Will we be able to run a
1.12.4 smart-proxy with our 1.13.3 Foreman Server? If not, are there any
alternatives?

Thanks!

Yes, the Puppet smart proxy API should be fully compatible between these
versions.

Do you have an idea of how far into future version that will be the case?
I'm not sure what this organization's timeline is for rolling into RHEL 7.

Thanks,
