The survey we did before enabling armv7 for Leap, showed interest from openSUSE community for armv7 boards. That’s why we made the effort to continue armv7 support for Leap. If the interest is much lower today, we could revisit this.
The other possibility is that people just flash a new image and do not update it via zypper. Guillaume From: Matwey V.

OBS project for armv7 Leap is not frozen, so I would have expected updates delivered from there, but openQA was disabled for armv7, so nothing moved it seems. This need to be fixed. Dirk, any advise?
