If you have any further comments or you think Windows 7 needs to be supported, please let me know.
Nothing actionable from me, but I am curious to know what the impact of dropping Windows 7 will be. For example, by what percentage will the library shrink? How much time is saved on CI? I would imagine that dropping Windows 7 doesn't give as much benefit as, say, dropping C++03. Of course that would depend on the library. WinAPI might in particular get a big savings. I'm just curious if there are metrics. Thanks
