Should we still keep support for libusb 0.1 because libusb 1.0 is not
supported on Windows?
Is there a plan for libusb-win32 to support the 1.0 architecture? Are there
any issues with the driver doing this, or is it just user-space
modifications? Given all the certificate talk, *if* it's ever going to
happen, it should be in the next year or so.
I don't know if libusb-win32 currently has a plan for supporting libusb
1.0 API.

We can roll out a last release which support libusb 0.1
API and in future we will not support libusb 0.1 in new releases. If
people want to use libftdi with libusb 0.1, they can use that release.
Simply abandoning 0.1 support bothers me, since FTDI continues to release
new chips, but (correct me if I'm wrong) development of a version of libusb
1.0 supporting win32 doesn't seem to have seen any progress recently.

The repo linked to doesn't appear to show mods in almost 2 years.

I think we can still make new releases for bug fixes and new chips
support from the branch. If we move on, it might become a motivation for
some people to pick up those works and get them done.
