That is just from the logs of that single web site, right? Anyway http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_2000 says: Over ten years after its release, it continues to receive patches for security vulnerabilities nearly every month and will continue to do so until 13 July 2010. Well apart from running some old software on VMs, I see no real value of running W2k. If our code is easier to maintain and future proof (if one can say so on windows) we should just go with XP+ Private users will most probably run UNIX to run GNUstep and when it comes to corporate users, I would fire anybody who uses a system that has no security patches on a normal end users desktop. From 2009 to 2010 the use of w2k has been gone down by 50%: http://www.heise.de/newsticker/meldung/Firefox-Fast-40-Prozent-Marktanteil-in-Europa-969288.html OS March 2010 March 2009 Windows XP 45,1 % 56,6 % Windows 7 17,8 % 0,6 % Linux 13,5 % 13,9 % Windows Vista 8,4 % 14,1 % Mac OS 8,2 % 7,7 % Other/Unk. 3,6 % 2,4 % Windows 2000 1,4 % 3,0 % Windows .NET 1,4 % 1,6 % UNIX 0,6 % - David Wetzel _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
