I kind of resent that affirmation. Not even questioning its grounds, I'm sure we don't decide to evict an architecture simply based on doubt, and uncertainty? hppa doesn't have any major flaw we're aware of, it has porters dedicated to maintaining it and it keeps up with the archive (99.9% of lenny is built on hppa[0]). I'll just assume this was the expression of your personal opinion, and I'll state mine which is pretty much opposed to what you suggest. In the end I'm sure any decision will be taken based on facts, which is fine with me.
