Hi Even,
I would vote for removing the VS2015 testing.

Hi,
I've been a bit frustrated lately by the time spent on the GDAL AppVeyor
CI builds: roughly 50 minutes for each of the two configs we test, VS
2017 x86 and VS 2015 x64, which can cause huge delays in case of busy
days with many pull requests etc. (those delays also impact PROJ since
the limitation to one simultaneous build is for the whole OSGeo GitHub
organization)
The immediate solution would be to just test VS 2017 x64 to cut that
time down and drop VS2015 and x64 testing. However as strange as it
sounds, there are still people using x86 builds...
I guess porting to Azure Pipelines (which we already use to refresh
gdal.org) could be a solution as well, since apparently they have a 10
concurrent job limit ( according to
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/licensing/concurrent-jobs?view=azure-devops
)
A ccache type of builds could also help since we rarely change headers.
I believe I tried to investigate that in the past but didn't find
anything really working.
If someone is looking for ideas for contribution...
Even
