Hmm... I understood that "dropping support" was not something that would _require_ newer OS,
but that it may not work (or not guaranteed to work, patches not checked for compatibility, etc)
on the older OSes...  Are you saying that W7 and W8 would be actively rejected?  (Like some
M$ products do so now.)
