Documentation: Dropped platforms

Post by Technologov »

Besides documenting new supported OSes, I would like to see VBox also documenting drop in host OSes.

The following host platforms were dropped:
Windows 2000 - dropped in VBox 1.6.0
Linux 2.4 - dropped in VBox 2.?.?
Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger - dropped in VBox 3.1.0

Next candidate for dropping: (RHEL4) Linux 2.6.16< (this is the first Linux kernel that actually "sees" VMX and SVM). (some work done in v3.0.6)

If some guest is not supported any longer by Guest Additions, I would prefer to know it too...

Please make it more clear, at least in the changelog. Dropped host platform is also "major feature".
