Re: Windows 7

I believe that Phil is looking at the old, unsupported, website.
It hasn't been significantly updated in literally years, so I'm
certain that it doesn't list windows 7.  I doubt that anybody is
going to change that -- I'm certainly not going to push any
patches for that branch.  The time would be much better spent
getting the new website out.

If the new website fails to list windows 7 anywhere, then we
should obviously fix that, but I think the only place we spell out
exact names is on the windows download page, and that already
includes windows 7.  I don't think we need to take any more action
for this report.

Cheers,
- Graham
