History: For previous AOO releases (up to 4.1.8), we have used
          CentOS5 as our build environ for our community builds.
          As of 4.2.x, this is no longer an option. Instead, we
          baselined CentOS7 (mainly due to gstreamer 1.0).

Discussion: The issue w/ CentOS7 is that the 32bit version is
             not officially supported. This means that for our
             32bit builds we are using an unsupported platform.
             Instead of using CentOS7, we could instead baseline
             Ubuntu 14.04, which is both 64 and 32bit as well as
             both under LTS.

             So the question is: CentOS7 or Ubuntu 14.04?

CentOS 7 32-bit is supported as an offical platform:

Cast your vote:

   [ ]   CentOS7
   [ ]   Ubuntu 14.04
   [X]   Something else: <enter suggestion here>

I've corrected my vote due to Jim's hint:

Ubuntu 18.04 (support until April 2023).

Some more details:

Since 19.10. there will be no 32-bit support anymore.

It seems even for us it will get very hard to find a baseline OS that includes 32-bit support *and* also modern frameworks and libaries (e.g., glibc, gstreamer, etc).

IMHO we have some more years, and then we need to re-think our 32-bit support, too.
