6 Good idea. Here's what I wrote:
7
8 Please upgrade away from the 13.0 profiles within the six weeks after
9 GCC 6.4.0 has been stabilized on your architecture. The 13.0 profiles
10 will be deprecated then and removed in half a year.
11
12 [I'd very much like to remove them faster, but am not sure about upgrade paths
13 and recommended deprecation times. It may become necessary to mask more and
14 more packages in the 13.0 tree over the half year since devs will start to
15 depend on c++11 only libraries...]
