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,

Can you define what 'fine' means? I recently uninstalled 2.13.21 and it
took the same 'age' it normally does. I.e. it seems to delete every
single installed file one at a time instead of just removing the top
level dirs (you can see this if you watch the uninstaller).
I only use Windows 7 and have done since 2.12.latest and all through up
to 2.13.10 builds and this has always been a problem (5-10 minute
uninstall). I have recently installed 2.13.23 but have not yet
uninstalled it (I am at home and I use Mac here).

I hadn't seen anyone had updated this, so assumed it was still an issue.

LilyPond runs fine on Windows 7. Could someone confirm, and we can raise
a
bug report to add windows 7 to the supported platforms list? (Can't find
a
report that this has been done already).
