Well, that's the "free" part in "free/libre open source software" for
you: The author is free to drop support for your platform any time they
like, for any reason (or even no reason whatsoever) -- you, on the other
hand, are free to back port their changes to whatever platform you like.

Unless of course you have entered into a paid service agreement with the
man.

Have you?


I'm not saying "programmed obsolescence" has nothing to do with it, but
you're definitely barking up the wrong tree. Some small town in Santa
Clara County would be closer to the mark.
