Well, personally I always understood that "... for as long as there will be people interested in _actively_ maitaining it and willing to commit resources, in whatever form, adequate to the task". Obviously maintaining old distros is getting harder and harder when they age. On a particular installation, where you really have only a subset of the whole distribution and other troubles may be non-existent or not important and you do not worry about breaking things which you are not using, this clearly can be much easier. If an interest is limited only to have somebody else to volunteer to do the work, and is voiced only when a support may be dropped, then this is obviously not sustainable.
