Again, do you have any source for any such "plans"?

I guess that if Microsoft plans to drop Windows support, there would
be a number of issues for desktop/office users. But are they?

If the sky starts dropping down on our heads, a lot of people would
have some issues. But is it?

But what if the messenger just makes up things or simply lies?
Can't you have some requirements that the messenger should be
able to have anything proving what he claims?
