Start caring. People spend lots of money supporting you, and what you are doing. How about taking some responsibility for that so they don't change their minds and move back to windows or pull their support because it's too costly or too much of a hassle to produce something stable from these releases. If you export functions from the kernel,

The "program a driver once, runs on every windows in the future" is
actually a myth. Talk to developers with windows drivers ....
It is just that the companies absolutely don't have a choice if MSFT

I support and write FS drivers for windows. The same driver works on 2002, 2002, 2003, and XP. Longhorn have changed two IFS functions and that's it, and still loads the older fs drivers through a compat interface.
