outdated sites

Hello!

The following sites seems not to be linked inside the OpenOffice online 
presence, looked outdated but listed in search results:

http://www.openoffice.org/product/windows.html
http://www.openoffice.org/product/mac.html
http://www.openoffice.org/product/linux.html

http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/source/sys_reqs_aoo40.html

I seem to remember that WinXP isn't supported furthermore. Is it?

Regards, Mathias

It is a problem we have with many pages (they are maybe not reachable 
directly, but search engines see them and removing them too abruptly 
could have bad effects in term of site ranking). I don't know what's 
best to do in this case. Maybe we just redirect them to the system 
requirements?

I believe it is not supported by Microsoft, but still supported by 
OpenOffice in the following sense: we still have a few testers who use 
XP, and we won't deliberately break compatibility with XP (but testing 
on XP is limited, so we can't be 100% sure to catch all possible 
errors). If the moment comes when we realize that dropping XP support 
would give us significant advantages, we'll have to assess how popular 
XP still is at that time and decide. On 4.1 we still list XP:
