I thought I did that a long time ago, but apparently not. Now I can't just tell my customers they're suddenly unsupported, so we're planning on ending support for it over the course of six months or so, and we'll probably provide our own supported stacks for customers who are on OSes that still run 1.8.1. -- I wanna hang a map of the world in my house.
