Re: [eclipse-dev] Ongoing support for Windows 7

Hi Jonah

Windows 7 will be dropped from 4.15. This means, specific Windows 7 bugs won't be looked at. However, we will not spend any effort to remove Windows 7 code. We expect that Eclipse continues to work the same on Windows 7 and Windows 10,

Hello folks,

Is there a plan to stop supporting Windows 7 as a target environment? I can see the
4.15 plan still has it, but as Microsoft are no longer providing updates as of next Tuesday, is it reasonable for Eclipse community to be investing time in it?

I am aware that some people are still using Windows 7, but people are also using GTK2 and too old versions of GTK3 and we don't have that listed as a target environment.

Thanks
Jonah
