I'm unfortunately completely deprived of #2 atm (and will continue to
be so likely until at least 2009), so I can't be of much help except
for the casual answers to questions I know the answer for, random help
here and there to willingful developers and machines access...

Agreed

I understand your point though it'd quite sadden me. Also, let's not
delude ourselves: dropping hppa from stable releases means "dropping
hppa" period.
Nobody is going to care for a non-release architecture. Frans already
stated he would stop working on the installer, and nobody is ever
going to use an architecture they cannot install.
So to say things clearly, if we stop here, hppa linux is dead.
