That affects XO-1 hardware being manufactured now, and C3s are among
the viable CPUs for low cost, low dissipation "school server" style
hardware.
On the school server, I do my best to keep Debian a valid alternative
(though the builds are Fedora based) and with a bit of packaging help
most (all?) the XS specific packages could be in Debian.
On the XO side, Jonas is packaging sugar and there's a mini-CDD called
DebXO that seems to be quite active.
I understand supporting additional hw does mean sizable work. Thanks
for the fantastic work done so far. Please do consider not dropping
support.
cheers,
