Both Windows Server 2008 R2 and SQL Server 2008 (R2) are out of support from Microsoft. This makes it hard to test these resources on older OS and SQL Server editions.

I suggest changing the requirements sections to reflect that we can only test resources on OS and SQL Server editions that are supported by Microsoft.

The resource might still work Windows Server 2008 R2 and SQL Server 2008 (R2) but that is something we no longer will focus on achieving.

BREAKING CHANGE: SqlServerDsc: Moving away from Windows Server 2008 R…
083850c 
…2 and SQL Server 2008 R2 (#1537)

- SqlServerDsc
  - BREAKING CHANGE: Since the operating system Windows Server 2008 R2 and
    the product SQL Server 2008 R2 has gone end-of-life the DSC resources
    will no longer try to make the resource work with those. Moving forward,
    and including this release, there might be code changes that will break
    the resource on Windows Server 2008 R2 or with SQL Server 2008 R2 (issue #1514).
