I looked at the read me for ooRexx 4.1.3 and was somewhat surprised to see
we still claim to support W2K in it.
I haven't had a working W2K system for 8 years, so I don't think we, the
project members, have tested an ooRexx release on W2K for many years.
I'm not in favor of claiming to support a operating system version that we
have no viable means to test, and have no intention of testing.
For the next release, I intend to update the read me and remove the claim
that we support W2K. Unless some one objects to that ...
For Windows, I would like to say we will support an operating system up to
Microsoft's end of life for that operating system. That we will not
intentionally do anything to break support for versions that have past
their end of life, but we no will no longer guarantee that ooRexx will work
on that version.
I personally am more interested in moving forward than living in the past.
I think the Unix / Linux version claims are probably out of date also, but
I don't have a good handle on that, so I'll leave updating that area to
some one else if they are interested.
