+1. We shouldn't be doing any work to maintain Tier-3 platforms, nor
should they hold us back from modernizing and securing the platforms
used by the overwhelming majority of our users.
While I agree with this, giving those tier-3 platform maintainers as
much advanced notice as possible and good-faith-if-low-touch guidance as
to how they can keep rolling would be a fine thing.
I see a few names with no mailing addresses for a number of people on
the supported build configurations page, so I'm going to see if I can
find them and ask them to add their contact information.
