It's my understanding, from statements by both Sage and yourself, that
existing OS'es would continue to be supported in the stable series, e.g.:

"The old OS'es" that were being supported up to v0.94.5 includes debian
wheezy. It would be quite surprising and unexpected to drop support for an
OS in the middle of a stable series.

If that is indeed what's happening, and it's not just an oversight, I'd
prefer to put my efforts into moving to a supported OS rather than keeping
the older OS on life support.

Just to be clear, I understand it is quite a burden maintaining releases for
old OSes, I'm only voicing mild surprise and a touch of regret: I'm very
happy with the Ceph project!

Cheers,
