What are the big features and possibilities we gain from 1.6? 
Build systems are pretty late in the chain. We should still be able to build on 
systems which are 2+ years old.

Is there a technical reason to restrict this or is it just that we don't 
actively support it anymore (not doing IT, etc)?


As comparison: we still supported 1.4 and older until not that far ago ;)
