What do you mean precisely by drop support here ? Are you merely no longer testing it, or is Nova actually broken with Hyper-V 2k8 R2 in Liberty ? Generally if we intend to drop a hypervisor platform we'd expect to have a deprecation period for 1 cycle where Nova would print out a warning message on startup to alert administrators if using the platform that is intended to be dropped. This gives them time to plan a move to a newer platform before we drop the support.
