[Development] Supported platforms for Qt 5.8

[Tuukka Turunen]

Sounds good to me in principle, especially since we very likely have again next generation of both iOS and OS X to support in Qt 5.8.

Especially in iOS users tend to upgrade to new versions quite quickly (and then see if their devices still can run that or not).

Yours,

Tuukka

Hi all,

Might be a bit premature, but is anyone opposed to dropping OS X 10.9 and iOS 7.x in Qt 5.8? This would follow dropping one OS X and iOS release per Qt release for the past 3 releases, but after that I think we should slow to dropping one release for each release we add (so, once annually or about once every two Qt minor releases). 10.10 and 8.0 were larger releases that began a new "generation" so I think that gives us a better baseline to start with before slowing to an annual upgrade cycle.
