The EoL for 6.2 was never June 30th.  It was originally set to January
31st when 6.2 was released, then extended by four months to May 31st.

If you have issues with 6.3, your time would be better spent reporting
them (by which I mean describe them in detail) than waving your hands in
the air and yelling at people.
