I personally would vote for moving > all of these arch's to exp status. Recent discussions about which Java JDKs to continue supporting have made me wonder just how many people are using these archs and how many people are using Java on them. I am trying to nudge all non amd64/x86 archs towards icedtea so should we bother continuing to support IBM's JDK given that it is proprietary, primarily there to cater for ppc(64), and you have to register before you can even download it? Just how many users are we going out of our way to support here? It makes me wish we had something like Debian's popularity-contest. --=20 James Le Cuirot (chewi) Gentoo Linux Developer --Sig_/TTo.uKt_UhfH=PSS4AG=xFO Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Description: OpenPGP digital signature -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0 iQJ8BAEBCgBmBQJVIZkaXxSAAAAAAC4AKGlzc3Vlci1mcHJAbm90YXRpb25zLm9w ZW5wZ3AuZmlmdGhob3JzZW1hbi5uZXQ1MjhERTZCRDg2OTFBNDM5MUZEQTJFRDQy MUM2MzIxMjlDNkQ3REU0AAoJECHGMhKcbX3kpUMP/14mKYNSivwJ+KOIRsOOwhP/ db96Tff2nvQJuPjn7ABynG2V61HUOYpyne1JAIveqNhRcQnmPKKApVsakxR+oZfX rSF9/NrhfEqkAnNOnJosjndGlmftDGzjBSF/ihYdKb//0BOS8j5OGPFFJQf7xojf xvU5XxhU3xyESMXFO4vnWV8ly+JvolbvqXDDTa37Y+maDgrX9/dRMnpbxB2KCGDy EM+KzfUdmk1GVoCfPPzFPTJ5HP11IMkpg4x1yLkf0E0qz81yPMRjSMeA8p2xHrZs Ahtnxy7XU7krHGIWkfrVr9YVVSiuXJCJ6wZMUO28nnYypagr7jeRnSCn1jbbMjN5 5xGqNlo4lEV1B6sHl5s63z8aH+ljTj6FtYIil2bwS/m3HMePrLCNyWKToJ4O7AwI +RLtgQUsLs8Qf8nT2FGS27Brh0ruUn6hpcOtbsUzK8N1n65rIg9Vwr8AcM2+Axmc JG4vldVhHK0wdxZgRwrNZptCueOsUTzkDzdmK83NquZwgbfbffeY3WmT1ARypN80 O1SKVXFdGWHSe19wyCJug1Cbpdz7DmVgyq1fjAshH26fJz1JB9jUxkLPrKeVQ7Rm en4qBVjXgu8BVSihYLFkp1GqAaahVnXqtFleAtfHEPftpk8Sf74OCMgoPjfQfDmW f0BXEQp0qaQ5PyP8zGbE =cXhd -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --Sig_/TTo.uKt_UhfH=PSS4AG=xFO--
