We're not selling a product, this is an open source project. I don't want to 
spend much time supporting old distros.

Which would require to maintain 2 branches and release 2 Pan projects (one 
gtk3-only and one with gtk2 compat). Sorry, no.

I'm fine with creating a Gtk3 branch on Pan repo. But I don't consider this a 
fork. It's just a workflow: in the short future, Gtk2 support will be dropped.

Once Gtk3-only is out and cleaned-up, we may want to look at Gtk4 and Wayland 
support.

All the best
