There are many things that could be looked at down the road that are outside the scope of this change proposal. It is purely about removing 32 bit hardware floating point arm from secondary and making it primary. which entails building as primary, composing as primary, and shipping as primary. the things we build and ship, OEM images, pxe tree etc, are not part of this Change. There are lots of aspects of the ARM ecosystem that will evolve and get better over time. I personally believe that we are at the tipping point where ARM as primary is viable and something that Fedora should do in order to enable and be at the forefront of emerging technologies. I expect that down the road lots of new changes for ARM things will come. some of them probably wont be things for x86. We the ARM team have done a lot of work, and made a lot of improvements over the last year. not everything is perfect but nothing is.
