[support] Drupal 6 Vs Drupal 7

[Walt Daniels]

The transition from D5 to D6 was hard for us. We are now doing D6 to D7 and
it is much harder. D8 is in progress and when released D6 will not be
supported. Unless yours is a very small site or you expect it only be
around for 1-2 years, D6 is an alternative. Otherwise go with D7.
