I personally would like to have centos 6 still supported because our
company is still using it, but I agree that from Bigtop's perspective we
should move to centos 7 for sure.

I propose that for recently releases, if there's an issue regarding to
centos 6 which is blocking us moving forward, and I can't solve it or I'm
keeping silence, then we drop centos 6 support.
Is that OK?
