You can't just demand that things be done in a "community driven distro". If you or someone else doesn't step up to maintain the i686 kernel and fix bugs, then it should be dropped as there's no point in having a kernel that doesn't work. Complaining about it and doing nothing is just noise. So far, I've only seen you complain. If you have a specific proposal and resources to continue supporting this 7 year old platform then by all means, step up. Otherwise I suggest you stop complaining.
