Given that this topic keeps coming up time and time again, my answer to where the line is: "right now, *too high*". That there must be a line was never discussed AFAIK (and once again, there was no proposal to remove the SSSE3 build!), the issue is *where the line is now*. -- Robin Burchell http://rburchell.com _______________________________________________ MeeGo-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.meego.com/listinfo/meego-dev
