Is there a hard deadline on when we must move to New Teams? We currently keep rolling ours back to old Teams and I'm curious when we will be forced to stop doing that.

What is the reason that you are currently rolling back to the old Teams, if you don't mind me asking?

  Hi HPeterson - per our GA announcement blog, "[w]e will soon begin making new Teams the default app for all Teams users based on our schedule, which is detailed on this page." That learn.microsoft.com article details when this will happen: https://learn.microsoft.com/microsoftteams/new-teams-desktop-admin#when-will-the-new-teams-become-the-default-client.
  
  That said, I am also curious as to why you are currently rolling back to classic Teams. Our engineering team would love to hear your feedback if you could submit it to https://aka.ms/TeamsFeedback.
