If the ia64 porters don't step up to do their job, we will first start removing binary packages that are not ported and will then start to consider dropping ia64 as a release arch. That's the worst-case scenario which wouldn't make me happy at all. ia64 hardware is, after all, still actively developed, so people using and porting to it should be around.
