Keeping with openSUSE 13.2 when it is unmaintained and vulnerable is senseless.
If the system works and is fully functional, why not?
We will not be testing migrations from openSUSE 13.2 to Leap 42.3
That is understandable, it cannot be expected that people who are busy working with software should test software which is no longer maintained and developed further.
If it works, great, but people shouldn't expect it to. They should spend their efforts working with what we do have, do support, and do work to improve..not clinging to something which is now, by definition and clear public pronouncement, obsolete.
A piece of software that is fully functional and does what the user wants it to do on compatible hardware, is not obsolete. It may be advisable to refrain from connecting to the internet if security issues are serious and cannot realistically be counteracted effectively with that software, but that is entirely another topic. Let the proprietary software manufacturers try to force their subscription schemes and cloud computing on us, we should be thankful for representing an alternative.
