Understand. I just seem to recall a short while back there was mention
that the 64bit builds would become 'office' once the new machines (VMs?)
were set up & working:
<http://markmail.org/message/vuyseqcvkflefcqp>
so wondered what the status is. (Thanks Adrian for the gstreamer builds).
Ahh sure, just a miscommunication on my part then.
Basically now that we have the new Linux systems, (all linux64 fwiw)
that are building both our linux64 releases as well as our linux32
releases. We have the technical capacity now to release linux64 officially.
That said, it would still take some relatively significant work on the
Release Engineering side, and the website to make that a thing. The
largest two up-front would be adding official builds for linux64 l10n,
and adding linux64 to the update generation code.
There are other, smaller, things to do here, like ensuring l10n teams
are aware of linux64 being newly official. Some manual QA on the build
to make sure nothing is eggregiously broken, and some work on the
website to make sure we can officially release it without confusing the
whole site (and past release pages).
Since linux64 does exist (in unofficial) and we release langpacks you
can install into linux64, we have not made that process a higher
priority, than, say, actually releasing betas or releases in general.
(You'll note that the latest round of betas are still delayed).
I thank you for your continued interest, and hope to have more to share
"soon".
