Hi Agostino, this is very sad news but I'm not really surprised about your decision. It seems like every arch except amd64 and to some point arm(64) seems to be the target of massive vilification. On behalf of base-system team let me thank you for your awesome stabilization work. I hope you will return at some point when your frustration level has sufficiently decreased.
