Inline with Scott's opinion, those folks have
been noting that most of the server software mostly sustain
the majority of upgrades and transitions , while the other
desktopish and user oriented ones , take up more support time
and effort  to sort out on need. Maybe this can be bridged by 
letting in the a portion of the latest stuff, but decide the 
border line very early in the process and not crossing it?
