Both. But Daniel seems to be able to cover for the latter.

I can enable armel in the archive in a matter of 5 minutes. The remaining
work is that someone needs to periodically provide updates for:
- Linux-libre images
- metad-installer (this actually needs to happen in a cronjob which
can be syncronized with archive.g.o on a daily basis)
- all arch-specific packages in the overlay (this should be automated, but
isn't yet)
And needless to say, debug/fix any issues we may encounter.

still allow you to remove your data and not access it at all."
