I believe we should drop Release criteria compilers concept, and have recommended compilers. Each library mantainer would then choose to mantain or not a particular compiler and document all the compilers he actively mantains. If a new library comes for review which can just run on some set of compilers, excluding maybe two release compilers, should we not accept it?
Maybe only conditionally on support of those compilers. If we choose the release criteria platforms properly, they shouldn't present serious portability problems for any library.
What if the library isn't suppose to work on those? It may be useful anyway.
