Hi Manuel,

Sorry for the delay - life is rather busy.

I'm going to take the lead for the ftp-team on importing riscv64 to the
archive.

The key points are:

 1. We need to import enough packages from the unofficial port to
 bootstrap a build chroot.
 2. These packages need to be at the current unstable versions.
 3. These packages need to be signed with a special gpg upload key so
 that we can track them and ensure they have been rebuilt before
 release.

If we can have a discussion on #debian-riscv to identify who will be
responsible for which parts of this and who from DSA / buildd etc will
ensure that their sides are done (where needed), that would be helpful.
Once we've had that discussion, I'll add the architecture to the
relevant suites, import the GPG key as a restricted upload key and we
should be good to get started.

Thanks,

Mark
