OK then, I can +1 that, but please: Make that more obvious in the proposal.
Honest question: How do I do that? Do you have a suggestion?

The word "encourage" is rather weird here. I am not a native speaker, but that
sound to me like we are agitating for active removals. Like we go to the
packagers and ask them: Could oyu please drop i686 from your leaf packages now?
Should this better say "allow"? Or "make it normal to".

Package maintainers are allowed to stop building... without fuzz. Opening
bugzillas or sending announcements is no longer required.
The *Detailed Description* section does not say what is changing.

half of the existing x86 builder resources in koji.
This sounds like a goal. Don't mention it. Focus on people instead: In
particular, when packagers drop i686 they have more time to spend with their
children :D

(32-bit x86), where this support is no longer required. This is intended to
reduce resource consumption of build servers.
Same thing.
