In the future, when asking questions on development lists, it might help
you in getting answers if you select a subject line that gives some
details of the question.  For instance, in this case a better subject
would have been "Quick question about UME on ARM".

I believe the topic of porting UME to non-x86 platforms was discussed
earlier on the list, so you might find it worthwhile to read the
archives.  I don't recall seeing anyone discuss plans to port to ARM.
x86 is significantly easier to support since you don't need to do
cross-compilation, and the current team members appear to be more
strongly interested in x86 than other platforms.  However, as with many
things in open source I think the limitation is man power - given a
volunteer to commit to maintaining an ARM port, I would guess the team
would have little opposition to it.
