Hey.

I would have no problems with a conversion to 2010 - that's what I use for
work. Regarding multiple versions: I'd rather not go down that route. For
both 2010 and 2008 free versions are available (so we're not shutting anyone
out) and as soon as you're modifying the solution you end up having to do it
in more than one place (which we already have to do for various platforms,
no need to do that for Windows builds times N).

So - my take:

2010 is fine for me, even appreciated.

Regards,
Ben
