Hello tom,

They are.  But that doesn't mean it will stop working though.  It simply
means that if you finds a problem, you're on your own.  Realistically,
that point will probably never come with OS Getamap, unless they want to
add new features that Silverlight can't handle.

If/when the OS *do* find a problem they can't fix whilst using
Silverlight, then they'll have to start looking at alternatives.  Until
that time arrives, if it ever does, all we can really do is keep bugging
the OS about using software that doesn't work on all platforms.
