What does not desupporting them right now mean? It seems to me the
only reason I am willing to keep "support" the older releases is that
it involves zero work. Are there still people who are doing anything
in terms of support that they would stop doing if it were desupported?
I think that yesterday is a reasonable time. But I really don't care
if people want to pretend to support things for longer.
