[Development] Removing MSVC2008 from the CI build farm?

[Knoll Lars]

In addition, it’s still required for WinCE. I don’t think we can remove 2008 just yet.

Cheers,
Lars

There are still some very large enterprise users running on vc2008 build systems. Would this mean that all hope for building new releases on vc2008 would be lost, or that it just may take more effort than normal? As it stands, I had to apply some manual fixes to get 5.1 to build with vc2008, but it wasn't the end of the world.

My $0.02 is that it may be a year or two too early to completely kick vc2008. After all, it's still the compiler which ships with the Windows 7 & .NET 3.5 SDK...

Hello guys

Is it maybe time to get rid of MSVC 2008 from our build farm? Do the new
versions support wince builds?
