* Deprecating Windows 7 and 8/8.1? (Ilmari)
* Firefox 115 ESR is the last release supporting anything older than
Windows 10
+ EOL of that is September 2024, FWIW (Miklos)
* Chrome 110 (released a year ago) requires Windows 10
* Market share looks like 5% of Windows.
* What does "deprecating" mean? (Hossein)
+ deprecating means: announcement of the intention (Ilmari)
* Amend wording to make clear that OS versions no longer supported by
the OS Vendor are only compatible on a best-effort basis, no explicit
testing is done, and while we don't intentionally break functionality
some things might not work without us realizing (Cloph)
* If the release notes say so, the website will also need updating
(Stephane)
+ that can be done, but it comes in 2025
AI: add this to the 24.8 release notes (Ilmari)
Just want to add and give my +1: even the "obscure" POS versions which
included security patches for Windows 7 (registry hack open vor
everybody, I used it) is obsolete since October 2021 and the ESU paid
stuff will end in Oct 2024!
Best regards,
Dennis
