App store app submission from Xcode 8.2.1

We have an app from the client which is written in Obj-c and includes Swift submodules written in Swift 2.3. As of now, I am running it on Xcode 8.2.1. By May 15, 2017, Apple has made it mandatory to upload app from Xcode 8.3.1 or above. I may have converted the Swift 2.3 files to Swift 3, but since they are submodules of external framework, these files are locked. My query is can I upload app by this week using Xcode 8.2.1 or do I requires version above that?

I'm pretty sure you're reading that sort-of "out of context."

From the link ( https://developer.apple.com/testflight/release-notes/ ):

  • May 1, 2017
    • iTunes Connect
      • Starting May 10, 2017, app archives built with Xcode 8.3 will no longer be accepted. Make sure to build and submit your apps using Xcode 8.3.1 or later.

and further on that page...

  • April 6, 2017
    • iTunes Connect
      • Xcode 8.3.1 fixed an issue that could produce app archives that were larger than necessary. Support for app archives built in Xcode 8.3 will be deprecated.

The way I read it - and considering there are no other references on that page to Xcode version limits - that is referring only to 8.3 vs 8.3.1 (or later), and not to 8.2

Also note, currently at iTunesConnect:
