Do you offer to drop support of W2K3 servers too ?
Technically I wasn't proposing not to fix this problem, but to formally no longer support Windows XP. But a good point; Windows Server 2003 will go end of life in July 2015, so do we expect to release FB 3 before that date ;). Note that although XP and 2003 are similar, they are not exactly the same.
