The info is actually scattered between blog posts, mailing list, IRC logs, git branches... I'd like to have a clear status of : * what has been attempted * what is already working, WIP * where to find up to date informations * which branch to use * any potential performance problems For (32 / 64, le / be): - mips - arm - powerpc - i586, i686 etc... I'm interested, as I have a range of old non-x86 hardware that is more and more being obsoleted by other distributions, and I'd like guix to become a safe haven for such oldies. WDYT ? -- Vincent Legoll
