    We're a volunteer project, so "supported" is based on interest in
    community.  Lets be clear by writing down a set of platforms that we as
    a community commit to support.

    I think we can define "support" as - "one or more people in the
    community tests on that platform on a regular basis, there are users
    that use that platform, and we have people volunteering to find and fix
    bugs that specifically affect that platform"

    Just throw things out there and we'll gather the results and see what's
    popular.  We'll summarize in 3 days.  Please be clear in indicating what
    you think should be reported.  Don't vote against anything. To start,
    using a broad brush :

Geir, I'd like to summarize the discussion to put the summary to web-site. I'm going to add something like: "We aimed to support wide range of different platforms. The main criteria if platform is supported or not is that there are people interesting in running test on regular base, reporting build status, finding and fixing bugs for that platform. A list of currently supported platforms can be found at http://wiki.apache.org/harmony/Platforms_to_Run_VM_on. " BTW, I think we can also use as indication if a platform is supported if someone set up Harmony build-and-test infra on the platform and regularly run it. Comments? Objections?

That captures my feeling of it, for the most part. I think it's still early - we'll rally around a few now, but as our platform and build becomes more portable, I expect more activity and having to revisit this question again.

Thanks,
Stepan.
