Thank you for making this clear.
As a customer of CME I was having a WTF moment reading the announcement, and being a newbie to the FIX/FAST scene I started to get realllllly stressed with the fact I never even heard about fast 2.0.
My question:
Is my current fix/fast 1.1 decoder should work with this "cme fix/fast 2.0"?
Thank you,
