Will Trinity no longer support any of the

As far as I know, Slávek only handles Debian-descended distros, not those
using other package formats, so his message shouldn't have anything to do
with support for RPM distros (or ebuild etc.)

Okay. For clarity, then, it would be nice if the title of the post
said "Reducing the number of supported Debian distributions". :-)
Except that he hasn't reduced the number of Debian distributions, he is even
still doing Squeeze. So that would have been even more misleading.
E Liddell said Debian DESCENDED distributions. An important distinction. The
only things being reduced are Ubuntu. Slávek does say that explicitly. The
subject could perhaps have been: "Reducing the number of distributions I
support", but Slávek is not a native English speaker. Or perhaps, for full
lack of all ambiguity, "Reducing the number of Ubuntu versions I support"
Regular readers of the list know that Slávek isn't the/an rpm supporter.
