Please feel free to pipe in. :D Would it make sense to start working with FESCO and QA on "reference" platforms. These would be items that we definitively test against to make sure they work on (and vice versa we can exclude platforms we can't test/work on). The reason I am asking is that looking at the ARM situation, it would be useful to narrow down testing to a subset of boxes versus the N+1 versions of ARM out there and for cloud it might make sense for our starting points to do the same. -- Stephen J Smoogen.
