Hi Timothy,

These are all excellent points. Unfortunately, it turns out that we have a *lot* more customers on Windows compared to either Linux or Mac. Speaking personally as a Mac & Linux user, I wish it was the other way around...

Speaking as an RSI/Exelis engineer, it is difficult to justify keeping a platform around when there are only a few users left. Each of our platforms takes approximately the same amount of development and testing effort, so we have to be prudent about which ones we continue to support.

I know it doesn't make it any easier to accept, but at least you know there is a reason. We do think long and hard about these decisions, because we know that it affects our users.

Cheers,
Chris
IDL Product Lead
