I don't think we should say "this is supported". I just think we should allow the *Deco* documentation to say "you can legitimately test this with Plone 4.2" or whatever. That means we may need to PLIP things for 4.x that enable Deco to work well, or "backport" things that otherwise would be in Plone 5 only, if they can benefit users of 4.x. The reasons to do this would be to reduce the risk of Deco bitrotting because no-one is able to use it except in super-experimental setups. It won't be a mainstream option until Plone 5, but some greenfields projects may be able to become early adopters if we don't make it *too* difficult for them. >> - I think we want WSGI as a supported deployment option in 4.x, 5.0 >> at the latest, via the Zope 2.13 WSGI work > > WSGI capability will be in Zope 2.13 / Plone 4.1 and while it will > certainly be considered experimental rather than supported at first, I > expect people will start gaining experience with it.

I think this is similar: a legitimate option for those who know what they're doing and are willing to help build the future.
