Ah fair enough - this is why you're the guy who decides ;) I hadn't thought

The new hardware should be up before too long, but that doesn't help our

Basically, we wouldn't delay this just because the hardware might not be
ready, simply because the hardware isn't usable by all the releasing
architectures, and I try my best to be fair to everyone.
