I think it's reasonable to plan for its inclusion For The Future. From what I hear from dgilmore I'm not sure making it an official arch for F21 would be a great idea, but it seems sensible to keep it in mind for future inclusion while we're implementing the initial design. It certainly seems like workstation/desktop-class ARM hardware is a thing that's happening: there already are ARM-based systems probably powerful enough to run Workstation, the Utilite, the ARM Chromebooks. We don't have all the bits in place to support them *yet*, but it certainly seems like we will, and it seems reasonable to assume others will follow where they lead. -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Twitter: AdamW_Fedora | XMPP: adamw AT happyassassin . net http://www.happyassassin.net -- desktop mailing list desktop@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop
