We already dropped 3.2 compatibility with the push/fetch support. That
was an accident, of course. 

Support for 3.3 could also end ahead of schedule if we absolutely need
some feature that is only available in 3.4. We'll discuss that then, when/if
it happens. The plan is to support 3.3 until 3.5 is out (or even longer if
that requires no effort).

So much for intent. We reserve the right to change our minds or make mistakes
without notice.
