The sponsorship is now confirmed since they have paid for a full year already. Plat'Home is the fourth gold LTS sponsor. >From IRC discussions it looks like that the buildd maintainers (at least Neil Williams and Riku Voipio) have no objections to supporting armel/armhf (Riku is rather pleased by it). On the ftpmaster side, I had no official feedback but at least Ansgar seemed to be fine with it when I asked him on IRC. On the Debian Admin side, I have not had any feedback yet. The LTS period is about to start soon and we will send out an announce soon... it would be nice to be able to say a word about armel/armhf, so an official confirmation from ftpmasters/DSA would be nice.
