I really should have posted a summary of the emails I received by now.
There were 5 in total, none of them gave me permission to forward to
the list. Text in brackets is my commentary.

One said "Yes, please".
One suggested branching. (Which is currently problematic for testing
reasons, but perhaps something to consider in the future).
One said they were using Visual Studio 2008. (Which should be
supported for some time).
One was asking if Embarcadero/Codegear/Borland will still be supported.
One is still using codegear/borland c++ 5.93, which is c++ builder 2007.
