That image isn’t maintained by us.

The beta2 release notes says: "Go 1.10 is the last release that will run on Windows XP or Windows Vista. Go 1.11 will require Windows 7 or later."

Is it just about the toolchain, or also about the runtime, which means with 1.11 we'll not be able to even cross-build binaries for old Windows with latest runtime/stdlib fixes.

I'm not personally concerned by Windows XP/Vista support, but some other might, so at least this need a clarification in the release notes.

Olivier.

It is also about the runtime. To me, that is what it already says: Go
1.11 will require Windows 7 or later. Any suggestions for how to word
it more clearly?
