Comment (by dunfield):

 > And just for reference, I posted my last 10.7 binary for Sage 7.2 - that
 machine was taken back by my employer.  But I think there will still be
 limited, but nonzero, demand for binaries for 10.8 and 10.9.  See e.g.
 [https://www.intego.com/mac-security-blog/os-x-market-share-
 statistics-1-in-5-macs-still-unsupported/ the analogous situation when
 10.10 was released].

 I have one machine running 10.8, and some main-stream apps (Chrome,
 Spotify) have started warning me that they will no longer be updated on
 that platform.  But even that is a very recent phenomena --- 10.8 is only
 4 years old, after all --- so I think there may be more demand for 10.8
 and 10.9 that you might think, especially given the common feeling that OS
 X releases are going downhill...
