Seems pretty absurd to think that they'll be actively supporting a product for another decade without putting out any new releases... then again Microsoft and I have never seen eye-to-eye about how to sunset and subsequently retire software.
- Alaskan005 14y agoIIRC, they have a written (or maybe unwritten) rule that they will not drop support right away. It's probably to encourage adoption of Microsoft's standards and software by enterprise. If a major company adopted this and Microsoft gave them a 6 months notice, they'd be pretty upset and less likely to do business with them again.
