All:
I hate to interject this late in the thread, but I think we need to
clarify what the discussion actually entails.

this thread was not entirely clear, so we need to clarify specifically:
Are we discussing dropping

I've been following this thread for a while, and have some questions. Are
we talking about dropping Ubuntu x86 images or i386 packages from the
repo? If the former, I don't see an issue here, as the subs (Lubuntu,

encouraged to remain on
