If support for Windows 95 and Windows 98 is what holds back the 7.5
release and there is nobody stepping forward to fix the problem, why not
release 7.5 without support for these two OSes.
If people still want to play Xconq on Win9x then they can just 7.4 for
the time being.
If there is enough momentum for them, somebody will provide a fix or
request the fix and this can be a 7.5.x release. If nobody complains,
then nobody minds.
Be pragmatic. I'd wager that most Xconq players know what they're doing
with computers on a level basic enough that they would not be satisfied
with using Win9x as their standard OS. Don't hold back the 7.5 release
because of it, when the support can be added at a later date anyway.
