Yes, we do. We simply say:
"Debian 3.1 is released on these platforms:
Platform 1
Platform 2

The rest of the platforms will be there, just not officially.

Backport when possible and do point releases. If not, they'll have to wait
for the next release. This won't be much of a problem if we're on a shorter
