    Initial release of Sassafras KeyServer Platform v8.0. All components are version 8.0.0.0 at initial release.


Operating Systems Supported

The following table shows the operating systems supported by the versions of the major KSP v8.0 components, as of this release. While some components may operate correctly on operating system versions that are not listed, the versions that are listed are the only ones that are supported by Sassafras Software for this release. Specifically, the client components might work on older versions of Windows, but because these older OS versions are no longer included in Microsoft's API compatibility documentation, we can no longer guarantee correct operation on them.
