I think the date is April 8, 2014. So assuming this means no additional fixes will be made for Windows XP, will it still be possible to activate a re-installed version of Windows XP, say one slip streamed to SP3, and then download and install all the updates that were made?
If not, I guess I'll need to create another slipped stream install cd-rom for Windows XP (this could take a while).
From this Microsoft web page:
Will existing updates still be available via Windows Update after April 8, 2014?
Yes, all existing Windows XP updates and fixes will still be available via Windows Update and WSUS.

Article about slip-streaming to create a bootable cd-rom with all update (not sure if it includes all the .net versions and updates).
