I think a vote is in order too.

Personally, I'll hate to lose sol8 support as I'm still running a few
8 boxes that depend on CSW.  That being said, I think I'd still vote
to drop the support, since keeping it allows people to continue
hobbling along on the same crutch forever.

Losing official support from CSW does not preclude individual sites
building packages against the last released packages for 8 either, so
just like running an unsupported OS, people can continue to run an
unsupported CSW.  Maybe somebody will spawn a CSW Legacy project ala
the now defunct Fedora Legacy project.

[I'm hoping to be completely moved away from 8 by the end of the
summer, but we'll see.]

Just my $0.02 CDN.

Thanks
