Do you think it'd be possible to reduce the amount of supported VC versions? Do you see any problem in reducing? Do you think these older are even used anymore? Let me know your opinion. Thank you for your time. GodLesZ: Like I said on a previous topic, all old stuff should be removed as they are just wasting space there. A clean up is a must. +1. I personally use VS 2010 Ultimate @work and private. Only for some of my old projects VS 2008 until convert. I dont see any reason why we should keep any project files for old 2003, 2005 or even older versions. We should declare some guidelines for clean up of old stuff like this. IMO we should keep support for the last 2 version (and gcc of course). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C++ Express is a 100mb download, not hard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
