            Yes they plan to stop support.
Pre-SP1 support is stopped. SP1 end of life plan is here.

        It is covered by the Microsoft 5+5 support policy. That means, 5 years mainstream support (ended in 2007), plus 5 years of "extended" support (you pay). And after that, it's special bid only.
