+Please note, we only aim support for the following distributions and versions:
+
+* Redhat 5.8 or greater
+* Debian 6.0 or greater
+* Ubuntu 11.04 or greater
+
+If you want a new distribution supported feel free to raise a ticket and we'll
+consider it. If you want an older revision supported we'll also consider it,
+but don't get insulted if we reject it. Specifically, we will not consider
+Redhat 4.x support - its just too old.
