Hi all. every time that I attach my tmux session to see what happens on irc, I always see the same discussion about the 'minor' arches status. Since I joined gentoo(2011) I worked on all arches except hppa, I put more effort in amd64 and less where I saw other people work on it (arm,alpha) But every time the magic phrase is that those arches are unmaintained.
Now, since I work on these arches just to help, i.e. I don't have any business and I do non have any installation of those arches and the work I'm doing is not appreciated at all I decided to stop for now. If your dream is to put sparc and ia64 to ~arch, go ahead, I have no objections. I will take a break also from amd64 and x86...let's see how things will change. -- Agostino Sarubbo Gentoo Linux Developer
