I do appreciate the considerable effort that allows for such massive backwards compatibility, so I want to make sure I'm not coming off ungrateful or anything like that. I know it takes a lot of effort to maintain software for such old systems. We are spending far too much time maintaining old machines, so we understand. At least there is the FUSE client from Luminous that we can deploy on 14.04, still better than the Jewel or Hammer compatibility of the kernel from 14.04. Life and safety systems are alway so difficult to make changes to. Do you think it would be possible to build Nautilus FUSE or newer on 14.04, or do you think the toolchain has evolved too much since then?
