Hi, As Simon already wrote this is affecting only prebuilt binary packages we deliver and nothing else. It is true that we usually haven't touched (at least removed) those in patch level releases but I don't see any big issue with doing this now; UWP x86 msvc 2015 isn't that widely used and feedback from dropping mingw 32 bit is coming just from 5.12 series...

We’ve been changing binary packages for platforms within minor releases so far, but not for patch level ones.

It does not result in any changes in the git repos. Simon On 5.

We looked at this today and agreed that this can be done, and it should be our intention to do so. We will make the final decision February 5th, and it will remain as described unless we get a lot of feedback saying that we should do otherwise.
