Question; it was fairly clear folks were fine with removing 1.3 binaries (still
hooking things up correctly as I type) for Win32.

It seems rational to drop Netware and OS2, but I'm not a stakeholder of either.
It's up to you maintainers if you feel we should keep shipping netware and OS2
Apache 1.3 binaries, or relegate them to the archvies.apache.org closet.

Thoughts?
