Is Microsoft Giving Up on the CNTK Project?

CNTK requires OpenMPI 1.x:

Which is only on Ubuntu 16-:
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openmpi/1.10.2-8ubuntu1

While Colab is Ubuntu 18, common Ubuntu distribution on servers is now also 18:

People just can't use CNTK unless downgrading back to Ubuntu 16!
