Discountenance
what does the word means in this paragraph?
Discountenance of WINSCORE (BFE)
The current WINSCORE system (which XXX has indicated will be decommissioned by the end of September 2012) will be replaced once the replacement ExcelForce BTX system is implemented (expected in May-June 2012). The current back-up infrastructure will also become invalid when WINSCORE is decommissioned and is not compatible with the BTX system. There is therefore an urgent need for us to set up a fully functional Disaster Recovery as well as to comply with guidelines by the regulators.

It seems to be a definition of 'discountenance' peculiar to the computer software business. I suggest that it may mean 'discontinue technical support of', but I am just guessing from the context.
