It seems that a lot of people discuss this topic on a fairly theoretic base
which I think wouldn't be necessary if one could see which architectures pass
which condition. Then you could discuss about specific items and not just
theoretically (which is not by definition bad).
I think the work for such an architecture list isn't that heavy and would even
do it myself but I'm just a user and "promoter" of Debian and don't know the
sites where I find the information.

Anyway thx for your great work I use every day
