Trying to maintain something that works across more than 3 releases or so is painful. I don't think android-x86 folks have the bandwidth to maintain things older than that *and* update to newer versions. So I think only supporting the n latest releases is good. Are .bp files for master/Q compatible back to N (or O)? IIRC, at least for the first couple of releases with .bp files, they seemed to have incompatible changes.
