I recently read an interesting article recently that suggested that
Fedora 23 might be 64-bit only:

See:

http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Fedora-23-64-bit-Proposal

Thread summary is incorrect (or at least misleading).

The proposal (so far) is for 32bit to be downgraded from primary to
secondary architecture.

IMO, this is a nonsensical proposal.

The ix86 family definitely is much wider used than any other secondary architecture Fedora has been supporting and ignores the fact the i386 is a multilibbed/~arched archecture of the x86_64.

That is very different than "end of 32bit support"
It's almost equal to it.

It means pushing ix86-Fedora users to use Windows and Ubuntu.
