[gentoo-dev] Killing ~x86-fbsd?

Hello,

I'm going to keep this short.  Gentoo/FreeBSD is on life support for
quite some time already.  The little work happening around it is all
focused on amd64.  I'm not aware of any developer running ~x86-fbsd
at this point, and all keywording requests on this arch aren't met with
response.

The single profile is marked exp and the depgraph is continuously
degrading.  At this point, it would probably be simpler to start over
(and possibly copy keywords from ~amd64-fbsd) than to try to fix
the current state.

Therefore, I'd like to propose that we remove the profiles and kill
the arch altogether.  Is anyone opposed to that?

Best regards,
Michał Górny

This will probably make life easier for people. I don’t see a problem with it.
