Comment (by i139):

 Replying to [comment:2 yawning]:
 > This doesn't affect us in the short-medium term (Tor Browser
 7.0a/7.0.x), because the next ESR series (ESR52) will still support
 XP/Vista.  The ESR after that is when the problems start.

 One observation, mozilla say, the support will end in september of 2017,
 it's coincide with the Firefox 52.3, how about the rest of Firefox ESR 52
 series? support will be cut in the 52.3? will be made a change in a life
 time of one ESR serie?
