And the MIPS thread âright nowâ shows how much we would not want to rely on prototype/evaluation boards. >> During Jessie lifecycle, there will be demand for stable ARM64 port. How about not releasing arm64 with jessie, but making a snapshot of unstable/arm64 (from debian-ports possibly) at that point and offering that as âjessie-arm64â, like âetch-m68kâ was done? With less than a year to go, this sounds like a safe route, and will lead to people not needing to rush things. bye, //mirabilos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
