At one point you have to say "stop", and disappoint people. You can't
satisfy everyone.
Dear Auke,
Given the actual (non existant) position of Meego on the market, you may
better considering to satisfy peoples other than just "on the edge"
Intel users if you expect to get a chance to be adopted by a large
community.
If the expected fantastic build system (OBS) Meego is based on have a
real value, then it must be trivial to build a i686 target like every
large distribution do.
Finally, when a code can get real boost with a set of specific
instruction, it's a good practice to detect the instruction set at
runtime to select between the generic and to optimized code. I think
that every projects working hard on codec have learned this to make
everyone happy.
Best Regards,
Jean-Christian
