Which of the compilers in Bill's message are the "extra old compilers"?

He said

so I'd classify the ones in the "and not these?" as "*extra* old", and would 
merely call the 2005 and .NET 2.0 versions as "old", as the ones in the "and 
not these" are older than the 2005 and .NET 2.0 ones.

I.e., are you saying "drop the ones Bill listed", or "drop the ones Bill listed 
*and* drop MSVC2005, MSVC2005EE, and DOTNET20"?

If the latter, is there much cost to continuing to support the latter three?
