I understand your situation. I've been a Linux user since too long to rember, and it's not comfortable when your OS or software stack is not properly working well with others. I hope you understand too, thath for any company without a huge amount of resources, adding support for Windows XP right now, unless is easy, is an ineffective use of resources. Its market share isn't insignificant, but is lower amongst developers (who tend to like having latest versions of applications), and is not even officially supported in the standard way by Microsoft. > In my current setup I easily develop and debug on both emulator and device > for webOS (native c/c++), BadaOS and TizenOS, BlackBerry (both PlayBook and > BB10). Some of them probably started a bit before, and had to consider XP more seriously because at that time the support and the market share was good. But yeah, it's quite disturbing seeing others having the level of support you need. -- Alex (a.k.a. suy) | GPG ID 0x0B8B0BC2 http://barnacity.net/ | http://disperso.net _______________________________________________ SailfishOS.org Devel mailing list To unsubscribe, please send a mail to devel-unsubscr...@lists.sailfishos.org
