This is long overdue and now that we have a reasonably compliant MSVC compiler that works on Windows 2000 up I can't see any excuse for not dropping support. Things that this work will still work, but if not - tough. (I am not proposing ripping out all the #ifdefs relating the MSVC 6, despite the improvement in readability that might result). Should we have a straw poll of the lurkers - so that diehards can have their say - and then make a decision?
