I also agree that 3.14 will not offer significant new features -
in fact some was removed so it keeps building - so that 3.13
should be the recommended build even if we made a 3.13 for them.
We should continue to offer this build for download and welcome
contributors to backport fixes (or even features if they like)
into a separate branch.
The master branch should be relived from the ongoing burden of
maintaining their build. But yea, we probably shouldn't go and
remove all the hwcodec build until after 3.14 so that we can offer
a lots of commits for potential backport up to an easy-to-rember
point in time.
So You basically propose to mark 3.13 as the last stable for archos,
and start cleaning after 3.14? Well, there were some important
bugfixes in theme engine after 3.13 (I don't know how relevant from
the achos POV though).

Well, I remember two important bug fixes, and both don't affect hwcodec
(radioart and fore/background color related, both not a thing on
charcell/monochrome). Are there more?
Anyway we can sure backport these, but attempting 3.14 for hwcodec will
most likely result in a less featured build on those because stuff needs
to be disabled to keep them building these days.
PS: It was originally Franks proposal :)
Best regards.
