It's not that arm9 is the past. There are lots of products out them with such cpus.
It's just that Linaro is funded by some of the biggest chip vendors to improve Linux on the latest and future generations of ARM chips. That's an investment for them, and this will make the future products based on their chips more competitive. Linaro has finite resources and budget. We can't work on everything, unfortunately. Of course, we will make sure that our contributions to mainline projects don't break existing platforms. Anyway, you can still count on other community projects to continue to support all the other ARM cores. In particular, Debian is a great distro for armv5 cpus.
