Indeed, and the topic of this mail was about how i can continue to do so
together with the readers who care about the powerpc port.
The facts you removed are just a basis to state the current state of

Among these discussion, it is ok for you to say : i don't care, the
current situation fits me well, but it is clear that this is not the
opinion of other readers.

Are they ? I would really much like them to be, but given that they
affected the powerpc port, i believe that they are on topic.

What other place is better to discuss the current situation of the
powerpc port, and what could be done to improve it ?
And please, tell me, what positive and constructive contribution you
have made to the topic ?
