This is the first of a few Connect follow up emails.  KVM and
Cortex-A15 tuning are to come.

Matt and I have entered the initial aarch64 blueprints.  These are
part of the bootstrap that clear the way for us and the community to
port packages on top.

The high priority ones are:
 * Add support for AArch64 to Boehm GC[1]
 * Add support for GProf to AArch64 backend of GCC[2]

After those we have:
 * Add IFUNC support for AArch64[3]
 * AArch64 GCC support for Stack Protection[4]

All are linked off the parent blueprint at:
 https://launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+spec/aarch64-gcc-initial-meta

and we'll add more there as time goes by.

The plan is to commit to the first two and do them this iteration.
The latter two aren't critical and will be done as part of our general
work.
