This is exactly what I was suggesting:

rx	Type			Release date
r0	Pure64-unstable		asap
r1	Pure64-stable		as soon as amd-pure64 fixed
r2	Multiarch		as soon as march ready
r3+	*			back to "regular" release cycles

-or-

rx	Type			Release date
r0	Pure64-unstable		asap
r1	Multiarch		as soon as march ready and stable
r2+	*			back to "regular" release cycles

This would allow to "quickly" release sarge, and progressively support
amd64 (and progressively get feedback and fixes)

Why not making an amendment in GR5 ?
