Thanks Andy for taking care of the release!
Seconded!
I do not see any reason to support 32 bit, any x86 cpu designed in the last 12
years supports 64 bit.
I still have some CNC machines running on 32-bit hardware.
IMO it's much easier for an end-user to upgrade the OS than the
processor, since it's just a hard drive swap. So i think the cost to
our users when we drop an OS (*cough*Ubuntu 10.04) is much less than if
we were to drop support for 32-bit x86 processors entirely.
One thing I appreciate about Debian is that they still support 32-bit
x86, so we get that processor architecture nearly for free.
