I’m just gonna snap in for my yearly IT guy NT6 rant: this mindset is going to kill the project by making it useless whenever it reaches a usable state.

Windows XP/Server 2003 use is *already* marginal as of today, and it’s only gonna get “worse” as more and more networks get infected by ransomware and institutions all over the world wake up and update (and as time passes of course). It’s not a matter of “fancy”, it is a matter of what people use on their computers. With that argument you may as well advocate for DOS.

 

Please don’t be offended, as always this is only intended as a reality check.

 

Best regards,

Riccardo Paolo Bestetti

I’m wondering for which useless / fancy features they need Windows 7+ support only….
