Yes, the OS API available in each version.
And although HN usually likes to bash Microsoft about bringing out new libraries and frameworks, Google is also very good at making "last year's best practices into deprecated APIs this year".
Which means multiple code paths if you want to provide good support across all versions, even with the help of SupportLibrary.
